[Episode 19]

Victory Restaurant

Can I have someone here? Please serve General Hua to rest.

He got drunk over two drinks.

Drinking competition isn't so noble to begin with.

But defeated by someone else. Shame on him.

Long Qing has been cultivating.

Till now, there is nothing superficial will distract me.

There's only one thing I cannot quit.

It is alcohol.

Wine is the best thing in the world,

but also could be the thing that dooms you.

This is when I first time drinking,

one of my close family told me.

Every time when I raise a wine cup

I would think of him.

In face, Long Qing prince is very good at drinking,

but he just doesn't drink often.

The students at the Academy are very noble and famous

Only hope

when you all reach the second floor, don't shame the Academy.

Chen Priest has a big tone.

Since you don't admire the Tang Academy,

why would you come such a long way.

Are you too arrogant.

The first year of Tian Qi, Yan State lost the war.

We don't have the equity to be arrogant.

Now Long Qing coming here is to replace my prince brother as the hostage.

We don't have the equity to be arrogant. As for drinking,

it has nothing to do with arrogance.

It's just Tang people are light weight.

Men's ambition should be in the battlefield

but not at the drinking game.

What's the point that Long Qing prince is so good at drinking.

The people who are good at battling are worth to battle with

The people who are good at drinking are worth to drink with

Today, since we don't have any war, the we have nothing to drink for.

provincial.

She drank all five bottles?

not even left one drop

You drank all of the wine?

Who said Tang people are not good at drinking.

Long Qing Prince

even a normal little girl are drinking

more than you did.

Does it count at good at drinking

Long Qing Prince, dare you compete with this little girl?

Long Qing Prince is such exalted

how can he be mentioned with this ordinary girl.

Is this your way of treating honorable guest?

Today's feast is a goodbye meal with an old friend.

I didn't think that someone would invite himself.

Is this the way of your Xiling people being someone's guest?

Guests have the the good kind and the bad ones

if you doubt the way of Tang treating its guests

please think about which kind of guest are you.

If you can't distinguish, please see where the door it.

Sang Sang, is the wine tasty?

Yes.

Then enjoy as much as you want.

She is your maid？

Yes

Reward.

Long Qing prince is studying at the capital and looking for talents

Today the Heavenly God gives you glory

a chance for you to devote your maid

-to serve Long Qing Prince. -shouldn't you express your gratitude?

Long Qing Prince. You look beautiful

Thank you, I know.

Since you are so beautiful,

don't think to beautifully.

Why?

The reason is simple.

Because I'm not willing to.

Because not willing to you might miss a lot of chances.

I never worry about what do I miss

Even a friendship with me.

Maybe the friendship with your highness

isn't as worthy as you think.

It looks like you value your maid so much.

What does it have anything to do with your highness?

Maid's master is really intereting.

My interest for you is growing.

The drink your interest down with the wine

If you can drink any more.

But I'm still curious,

in your mind who is qualified

to be the master of your maid?

It still has nothing to do with you

But since you are so curious

I can only tell you

at least you are not qualified.

I'm not? Who is?

Unless it's the Princess?

No she isn't either.

You rascal, I've asked for Sang Sang several times,

and you don't heed me at all.

It looks like I really have no seniority.

Since even I don't have any seniority,

then does Prince Long Qing have seniority?

Young Master, let's go home.

Just a minute. I still have a few questions to ask him.

Go ahead.

Don't misunderstand. I am not interested in debating with you.

I'm actually not that good at it either.

I'm just curious about the Prince's self-confidence that was demonstrated earlier.

So I have a few questions that I'd like to ask you.

May I ask, does heaven have eyes?

The Heavenly God abides above the heaven,

mercifully and kindly looking down upon millions of lives below,

so in that sense, heaven naturally has eyes.

Does everything on earth and in heaven have nascent energy?

Yes, there is.

Does the use of nascent energy have any rules?

Yes, there is.

Do mayflies have a life?

Of course, there is.

- Do ash trees have roots? - Yes

- Do people have thoughts? - Yes.

- Does Tang Country have a king? - Yes.

- Does Xiling have a code of conduct? - Yes.

Do socks have holes?

Of course,

there isn't.

Who knew that after I patiently listened to your questions,

in the end it is just for some little display of distastefulness.

You are really causing your hall to lose hope.

Indeed it is just some little wits. But Your Highness is unable to face such small trials,

Actually, I'm a little disappointed.

Sang Sang, do you still remember the story I told you when we were little?

For the most part, how did the black bear die?

It died of stupidity.

Young Master, you were right. A handsome person's

brain really doesn't work too well.

If socks had no holes, how do you wear it then?

Before that, all the questions I asked you, you have answered before.

Heaven truly has eyes, it is looking at the lives of all living things.

You and I are like the worms on a tree.

Since we are worms, we have to follow the natural laws.

If these rules are in Tang Country, then they are Tang rules.

In the Tang rules it states that everyone's private belongings should not be touched.

My things will always belong to me.

As long as I won't agree to it, don't even think about taking it away from me.

Of course socks have holes,

My little maid is mine, of course.

As long as I won't agree, you can forget about even taking a cent from me.

because this is the Tang state, and I am a person of Tang.

Ning Que's right.

Ning Que's super!

-Good. What you've said is logical.

But I also know another model of logic.

If a person doesn't have the strength,

even if he's got one last cent on him,

sometimes it's hard to protect that.

Prince, are you threatening me?

Princess, Great Scholar, he's threatening me.

You must have misheard it.

How can the Prince threaten you?

With your inconsequential capability,

do you want to ask for a fight, resulting in your death?

But I've never heard, in our Tang Empire,

someone has the audacity to threaten a citizen of ours.

What's your name?

Ning Que

Ning Que

You must be a student of the Academy.

Will I see you when I get onto the Second Floor?

His acupoints of Qihai Xueshan are all blocked, how can he get onto the Second Floor? Not a chance Your Highness will see him.

Just shut up and eat your chicken wings.

Such a pity!

Perhaps there aren't so many pities in this world.

I know you all feel shameful to be my friends.

Perhaps you thought today I only played a few petty tricks.

But I don't care.

Sang Sang, have you had enough to eat?

Yes.

Princess, Your Highness,

Ning Que will take his leave first.

Go ahead.

Let's go home.

The world's most beautiful man . . . Xiling's gifted . . .

the hope of Yan state.

So absurd!

We'll take our leave. Prince, please.

Prince Long Qing, our Tang state still has a lot of good wine. Aren't you going to drink anymore?

Young Master, do you think they'll chase after us and beat us up?

Not possible. Even if the prince flew into a rage, he wouldn't send assassins after us.

This is the Capital. He won't be that stupid,

stopping us just as we leave.

Noble master, please stay. Upon the Princess' order, you should wait for her on the terrace.

Young Master.

You go on home first and wait for me. Hurry.

[Victory Restaurant]

This little maid,

who knows if the Princess purposely prearranged for her to be there.

Hiding in a dark corner, a little maid drank her wine.

I lost control of myself over a little maid, who would've thought!

It seems it's really a godless country here.

Ever since I arrived at the Capital, my pitious heart has been covered by dust.

Your Highness, don't fret over these trivialities.

Send underlings to check his background. He's such a nuisance!

Yes.

Why are you looking for me?

At today's feast, even though you acted in defence of the Academy,

your classmates still wouldn't sympathize with you.

It seems your popularity in the Academy is not just not high,

but extremely low.

Popularity is a strange thing,

like the wild grass on the wall.

It moves with the direction of the wind.

Not being popular just means the wind is not strong enough.

What you said is interesting, but

if others hear you talk to me in such a tone,

they'll be terrified by your wantonness.

Your performance wasn't too bad.

Dared to offend the Yan state and Xiling at the same time.

With my inconsequential capabilities, not a chance I'll be able to kill him!

So why not stung him a few time for the interests of my money.

Only one person is allowed to enter the Two-Story Building this year.

I'm thinking if this person could be you.

I don't care what Yan State or Xiling thinks.

And I don't care if there's some kind of agreement betweet them and the court.

I just don't want Long Qing to get into the Two-Story Building.

That Prince Long Qing is a great cultivator about to enter the Knowing Destiny Level.

And he's also a bigshot of Xuling.

As for me, I'm just an ordinary student in the Academy.

Your Highness wants me to be a stumbling block on his way to the glory,

you must think too highly of me!

I'm just thinking too much into it.

Why did I put my hope on such a mediocre guy like you?

Your Highness is worried that this Prince Long Qing will grow too strong

and become an obstacle for Prince Chong Ming's path to the throne.

[Princess Manor]

Long Qing didn't mean well in this visit.

Chong Ming Brother do you have any ways to deal with this?

If there is only one person to can reach the second floor

I hope it's not him

I hope so too

But Long Qing is so powerful

Is Yu Er sister, after meeting Long Qing,

deciding not to help me anymore?

You thought too much

I was just thinking about countermoves.

Xiling has been watching Tang Empire these years

And Yan State has been friendly with Xiling

If Long Qing became the monarch of Yan State,

he surely will lead Yan State to fight Tang.

Only if I became the monarch of Yan, we would be friendly with Tang.

We will have true peace.

Chong Ming Brother is so right about this.

But what I'm worried about is that there are a lot of people supporting Long Qing among Yan State

If you go back to Yan, I'm worried that you two brothers became enemies

Even if it's brothers became enemies

even killing each other

I'll have to gain what belongs to me.

Yu Er sister

If one day for your own brother

you have to kill another brother

would you do it？

There is only one throne

if you want it, you have to be cruel

even if there's blood

you have to proceed without hesitation.

-I'm leaving. -Chong Ming Brother

Yu Er sister, wait for me to come back

Whatever I want

I must gain it.

One day, I will have you promise me willingly.

Come, see what have I brought you.

Breakfast at Victory Resturant?

Only one person would get to second floor level

I really want to get it

and I really don't want Long Qing Prince to get it.

How much hope do you think I have?

I know Long Qing Prince is the Child of the Light

and I'm just an ordinary guy

But

if the test

you can share some with me

You look beautiful

I know, I know, I'm beautiful.

You look very beautiful

So don't think too beautifully.

Even if you don't want to share the test with me

you don't have to talk to me in this tone right?

I don't believe that without your help I can't get to second floor

Although you are not very talented

but under the tutoring of a genius like me

those talent like Xie Chengyun

isn't hard to win him

but the caveat is that

Xiling is willing to send Long Qing Prince. In front of him

you have no hope.

Didn't you tell me you don't know him?

But I know the vice president of Heaven Decree Academy Cheng Lixue

-And we are close. -Didn't you tell me

that in your eyes, the people from Xiling are worthless.

Now you tell me I cannot compete with Long Qing Prince at all

You mean in your eyes,

I'm more worthless than the worthless.

Don't tell the truth so bluntly

I was worried about hurting you

What's the harm about telling me things about the test?

Chen Pipi, I'm telling you, me not getting into the second floors has no benefit for you

Till Long Qing Prince get to the second floor

and reveal your real identity

isn't that getting yourself in trouble?

It's because I think you don't have good lucks

The first senior fellow and Fu Zi hasn't come back from their journey

Even though second floor will open as usual, but it's Second senior fellow is in charge of it.

As for the test, Fu Zi has already decided long before he left

Even I know the test

I can risk being kicked out of the back mountain to tell you the test.

Are you gonna eat it or not. It's so wasteful if you don't.

-I bought it for you. -Really?

In face, you are just not lucky

If Fu Zi and First senior fellow were here, they were easy to talk to

maybe if I beg them

Fu Zi can admit you to second floor specially

What a pity.

Chen Pipi, I'm not hoping for you to leak the test,

but at least you can tell me how the test is conducted

let me know what are we covering and the methods,

it's better than knowing nothing.

That's fine.

Gentle. Gentle.

The Academy has different test each year.

More gentle.

For example, asking you to write calligraphy, or paint something

or maybe have you to swim in the swamps

then maybe to compete who eats fatser and more

Wait

What are the shenanigans that the test for second floor have?

How did you get in in your year?

I'm genius that doesn't show up every year

I just randomly got straight A+ in six subject

so they admitted me specially

Fu Zi welcomed me with a smile on the mountain road

First senior fellow even gently touched my belly

I don't need some theory for exams

It should be called exemption.

I really want to get in the second floor.

Because I need to be very strong

to do things that it's impossible for me to do now.

In fact,

the second floor aren't admitting genius for cultivation

like my six senior fellow, he's a good blacksmith

elaborate.

Fu Zi cares about the intention and personality of the students

the second floor tests always changes

but it all has that theme

so tomorrow no matter what the test is

first of all, you need to remember

hold on to your original intention

and do your best

like that you have some chances

do my best

it's close to dawn. the second floor is gonna open in few hours

go back to take a nap.

This is the test you leaked to me

I didn't say anything.

I can't talk more.

Ning Que

You have to remember

hold on to your original intention

[Flowers blossom under the sky over the other shore]

Princess, it looks nice

Why Hun Yuan came back?

Princess sister

Come over

What happened

How did you become this?

Princess Sister, please save Hun Yuan.

Hua Shan Yue is trying to revenge. He bullies me

Yeah. When have you ever suffer like this.

Sister, please don't let me go to the military camp.

Let's go. Let me tend your wounds.

Little Brother, run!

Elder Brother!

Run!

Elder Brother.

Long Qing.

Yu Er's handwriting

definitely has improved.

This is what she had sent over here.

The five charaters she'd imitated.

Has Your Majesty remembered what was explained to me,

the meaning of "Flowers blossom under the sky over the other shore"?

What is the real free sky?

Of all the things that's under heaven,

there's nothing that cannot be overcome,

let alone affection for our children.

I will soon have the two of them enter the palace.

In front of us,

they'll imitate the five characters together.

But you can't beat him to death.

Your Highness cannot afford the kindheartedness.Your

He's my little brother.

It's not as if you don't know what Hunyuan is like from since he was little.

When has he suffered like this?

You whip him with this whip. How can he handle it?

Your Highness' maternal family from Qinghe County, my family from Gushan County,

and all those key court officials who support Third Prince,

how many eyes have been watching, watching his behavior in the military?

Now that Grand Prince is also on Your Highness' side,

if Third Prince can't even swallow such a little pain,

then how can he inherit the throne?

Well, you don't have to beat him to death.

Military training is always like this.

And those delicate bones of the prince,

somebody should scrape them a long time ago.

You know the kind of person I am.

You have to trust me.

Then thanks for your trouble. Just be gentle with him.

Third Prince can be entrusted to me. Please ease Your Highness' mind.

At the moment, Your Highness' only concern,

should be how to repair your relationship with His Majesty.

This stalement cannot be good. After all,

who's to be Crown Prince, that's all up to His Majesty.

[Old Writing Brush Shop]

Do you think I can make it into the Two-Story Building?

Yes, you can.

Do you think I can become Fu Zi's personal disciple?

Yes, you can.

Think I can avenge Little Black?

-Yes. Think I can reverse the verdict for the General?

Yes, you can.

Sang Sang!

Young Master, what's up?

Did you hear all that I said?

Tomorrow I'll be taking the examination to enter the Two-Story Building.

I . . . what should I do?

Sleep.

No, this won't do. I have to go study right now.

Young master, it's no use sharpening your spear only moments before going tnto battle.

It's better to go to sleep.

Young master, now you

must reserve your energy.

This way you can put all you have to the exam.

I believe that you can certainly get into the Two-Story Building.

You'll definitely become one of Fu Zi's personal disciples.

You'll definitely be able to avenge Little Black.

You'll definitely get the verdict on General Lin reversed.

Okay, go to sleep.

Elder Brother.

Come.

Long Qing, it's been 15 years since we last saw each other.

That's right.

Brother, is everything going well for you?

Yes, it's good. All's good.

Just... just that because of my mistake,

the State Restoration Society that we've taken great pains to run for the last few decades,

has been annihilated by the Tang Empire.

Let's drop the topic. When I return to Capital Cheng,

I will beg Father's forgiveness.

For the sake of one woman,

is it worth it?

It's worth it.

Long Qing, you won't ever understand.

For the 15 years that I've been in the Tang state,

she has been important to me.

Elder Brother, you've changed.

Have you forgotten your mission?

I won't ever forget it.

At least there's one thing I've done,

to let Tang Empire and all the people in the world

believe we'll turn against each other for the throne.

Long Qing, will you and I

turn to fratricide?

Of course.

From acient times till now, to fight for the throne,

is fratricide really

that rare?

But we won't ever.

Forever.

Do you have the confidence to get onto the Second Floor?

Of course. With my capability, there's no question about it.

But I'm worried that the Academy won't let a prince from the Yan State enter into the Two-Story Building.

If you have the absolute capability,

your nationality makes no difference to the Second Floor.

Good.

Good.

Heh.

It's a pity I have to leave tomorrow.

I'm not able to witness your ascending to the Second Floor.

Don't worry, my brother. I will certainly become Fu Zi's

personal disciple.

Okay.

I will wait for your great news in Capital Cheng.
