[Warm on a Cold Night]

[Episode 36]

You're so stubborn.

Why should I

show mercy to you?

No!

I'm sorry.

I can't watch you

make another mistake.

It turns out

you all have always been heartless.

I'm the only one showing mercy.

No.

At this point,

our friendship

is over.

I made this dagger myself.

Do you like it?

I'll make another one for you.

The timing is just right.

It's your birthday.

This is for you.

General.

Are you alright?

Why did you stop?

If you stab me,

I'll die for sure.

You know

we don't want to hurt you.

Just like you don't want

to fight with us.

But you still did it.

Just like I did to you.

Do it.

I won't do that.

Be careful!

What happens next

is your chocie.

Do you want to save the people of the Qi race

or Su Jiu'er?

Search every house.

You guys go over there.

Yes.

Let's go.

Our problems are compounding.

Why has the Eldest Prince also gone missing?

Who knows?

Shut up!

Don't talk presumptuously about His Highness.

Let's go.

Be careful.

Hurry up.

-Hurry up. -Those are all soldiers.

Get down.

Let's go.

Keep searching.

Can Jiuxiao City

go back to the way it was?

Yes.

Of course.

Su Jiu'er, let me tell you.

Don't overthink this.

You must live well.

Do you hear me?

What are you talking about?

Don't get affected by Mu Yan.

You think that's the only way?

There must be another way.

Stop talking, let's go.

Let's go.

Over there.

You scared me.

You suddenly disappeared.

I thought

you had been abducted.

I was.

But

Han Zheng saved me.

What happened?

Why did you come back

looking like this?

What did you do?

Is it related to

the disappearance of the Eldest Prince?

No, Mother.

-Han Zheng, you... -Alright, Mother.

Come, sit down.

-Let me ask you. -What’s wrong with them?

Why are they so mysterious?

What's the matter?

Let me ask you, Mother.

Have you formulated the antidote?

Not yet.

I'm not that fast.

Keha.

Go to the Inspection Bureau

and bring Uncle Bu here.

Bu?

Jiu'er.

What do you want to do?

Don't be so nervous.

I'm just thinking

since I have the Ember

and can cure Han Zheng,

maybe I can cure the others too.

I want to try.

Ember?

What's the Ember?

It's nothing.

Keha.

Go.

Here.

Have some water.

He actually would harm

his own clanspeople.

I didn't expect

there to be so many people in Shuobei

who have been poisoned.

We must not

let Jiu'er find out about this.

Otherwise,

she will do something stupid.

But now that Mu Yan has left,

the Ember is our only antidote.

I don't believe it.

There's still time.

There must be another way.

Prince Jun, are you looking for me?

I found it in Eldest Brother—

Mu Yan's room today.

If you don't want it,

I'll take it.

I could destroy it too.

No matter what happens,

it won't affect the past.

Eldest Brother.

How did you and Sister-in-law

make your feelings known to each other?

We

never confessed

to each other.

We used to see each other a lot,

but I never

told her about my feelings.

This was until

she mistakenly thought

I was going to marry

another woman.

Her attitude towards me changed completely.

She ignored me.

That was when I realized

she was jealous.

It turns out

she liked me too.

Your Highness.

Let's go back.

I'm curious.

Hundred Beast Chess

is only popular in Qi.

Why do you know how to play it?

My wife

liked it very much.

I played with her often.

I've heard about

the Crown Princess.

She must have been

a very special woman.

In my heart,

she was second to none.

The late Crown Princess had

the same birthday as me?

I guess this is a kind of

inexplicable fate.

Happy birthday.

Tell me.

If one day,

we become adversaries,

what should I do?

That day won't come.

I said if.

I think

I would choose to leave.

So what you said

was always about us.

It seems

you have disappeared from this world.

I hope you can let go of everything

and live a new life.

You're getting better.

You're really getting better.

What's happening?

I have been holding Uncle Bu

for a whole day.

He's finally getting better.

Look.

Yes.

His pulse is improving.

It's not as weak

as it was before.

Indeed.

He's much better now.

So

Bu doesn't have to die.

Yes.

Uncle Bu doesn't have to die.

I don't have to die either.

None of us has to die!

Su Jiu'er.

What's wrong?

Let's talk outside. Let's go.

Come, sit down.

What's wrong?

Isn't this a good thing?

What did you mean?

Did you really want to

gorge out the Ember?

What if Mu Yan

lied to us?

Were you going to risk your life to verify it?

Why are you laughing?

Alright, Your Highness.

You said so much in a single breath.

Aren't you tired?

No.

All right.

Come on, Your Highness.

Calm down.

Don't be angry.

Don't worry.

Safety comes first

has always been my motto.

Besides,

since I can alleviate Uncle Bu's symptoms

through physical contact,

it means

it will work for the other Qi people too.

Why would I still have to

take out the Ember?

Jiu'er.

You must not think about

sacrificing yourself.

The world is so big.

There must be another solution.

Yes.

I know.

After all this trouble,

I finally understand

it was the power of the Ember

that saved me

from the brink of death

ten years ago.

You still have me.

I will help you

live healthily.

No.

Not only that.

I can help you

live happily.

Tell me.

Why

does my body feel better

whenever I touch you?

The Ember is the holy fire

passed down within the Xueqi.

And I am of

the purest Xueqi bloodline.

Maybe it's because

of this.

Every time I touch you,

the power of the Ember intensifies.

I see.

Sorry.

I have been holding on to the Ember for so many years.

What?

Aren't you helping everyone

with the Ember right now?

But now

so many Qi people have been poisoned.

From now on,

I think I must

hold many people's hands every day.

I can't do anything else.

When I get to the Inspection Bureau,

I will have to just sit there

and stretch out my hands.

Many people will then

line up to hold my hand.

I will probably

hold over two hundred people's hands in a day.

Will you get jealous?

I'll lend them that hand

for the time being.

This hand

belongs to me.

You save their lives.

I'll replenish your health and longevity.

I really hope all of this

will end soon.

Then

we can

return to Shuobei

during the Under the Moon Festival.

The Under the Moon Festival?

Great!

After listening to you all last time,

I've been really wanting to go.

At the Under the Moon Festival,

I will announce to the world

that I

am going to marry you.

With the Moon God as a witness,

the promise made between two lovers

is binding for life.

What a pity.

You Qi people

can live for over 200 years.

I can't

grow old with you.

I won't live to be

200 years old then.

I just want to

be with you for the rest of my life.

Don't talk nonsense.

I'm not.

I'm serious.

I can give up everything

for you.

You haven't been eating or sleeping

for the past few days.

You must be exhausted.

Why don't you go back and sleep?

I don't want to.

Sit down.

No.

I

want to sit here

quietly

with you.

Okay.

I want to eat something delicious.

And

I want sugar drops.

I want to go to the bathhouse.

I'll take you there tomorrow.

Tomorrow?

Under the Moon Festival's lanterns

are lit for one's beloved.

Who are you lighting it for?

For old friends.

Who are you lighting the lantern for?

For my beloved, of course.

Who is your lantern

for?

Shi Luqing, of course.

Because I still love her.

My lantern

is for Jiu'er, of course.

Where is everyone?

Han Zheng.

Han Zheng.

I'm here.

Jiu'er.

Are you calling out to me?

Why are you here?

Come out now.

Why aren't you coming out?

Jiu'er.

Jiu'er!

Come out!

Jiu'er!

Why am I here?

Why are you crying?

Your Highness.

You're awake?

It's still early.

Go back to sleep.

Where is your fur?

You're recovered?

You should sleep a while more, Your Highness.

Where's Jiu'er?

Say something! Where's Jiu'er?

Your Highness....

Jiu'er...

Your Highness...

That one up there.

Be careful.

OK.

Have some water and take a rest.

Yes, that's it.

Let me help you.

Thank you.

Thank you for your work.

You're welcome.

Come on.

Drink some water, everyone.

Here, have some water.

Thank you.

A little to the left.

Boss!

This place was a mess

just yesterday.

How did you rebuild so quickly?

What yesterday?

I've been fixing my house for three days.

Three days?

Jiu'er.

Jiu'er, wake up.

I'm here.

Wake up.

I'm Han Zheng.

Jiu'er is fine.

She's just asleep.

Right?

Look.

Her heart is still beating.

She won't wake up anymore.

Why?

The poison can be treated through physical contact.

Why did you have to

take out the Ember?

At that time,

she already realized physical contact didn't work.

The only way

was to take out the Ember.

She was afraid you wouldn't agree,

so she lied to you.

Impossible.

Didn't Bu

recover?

That was a lie.

I pricked the acupoint behind his neck.

The water

at the stargazing balcony

was spiked?

That's why

I was in a coma for three days?

Physician Qin,

you love Jiu'er the most.

Why did you allow her

to do this?

I...

I...

I didn't want to!

But Jiu'er said

if I didn't help her,

she would do it herself.

You know

how she is.

She is as stubborn as her father.

She believed she stole

the past 10 years of her life.

No matter what,

she wanted return the Ember

and save more people.

I knew

I couldn't stop her.

The only thing I could do

was to help her

leave without pain.

Brother Han.

This is a letter from Jiu'er.

Jiu'er said

she wanted to

write a lot of things to you.

But by then,

she had no more strength left.

Han Zheng.

Don't blame me for lying to you again.

I'm timid and afraid of death.

But I'm more scared

of harming more people

because I want to live.

I still think

being able to meet you

is an incredible thing.

My life is destined to be short,

but because of my father's persistence

and the power of the Ember,

I have lived until now.

I fear troublesome things,

but I somehow got involved in the Nursery Rhyme Case

and met you.

In the beginning, I was afraid of your moodiness

and you hated my lies.

But because of health and longevity,

we kept getting closer to each other.

We got to know each other

and fell in love with each other.

So,

in this vast world,

amongst a multitude of people,

we're lucky

to have come this far.

Why agonize over

whether we can grow old together?

Han Zheng.

Please forgive me.

I've thought long and hard about my decision.

If I don't

remove the Ember from my body,

I can only save the Xueqi.

What about

all the other Qi people?

I don't want to live ignobly

at the cost of your clanspeople's lives.

In your long life

of over 200 years,

I am just a passing moment.

Don't stop in your tracks forever

because of this one moment.

Alright.

It's time to let go.

I know

you will always remember me.

But you have to

let me go.

I should have noticed it earlier.

She's good at lying.

Why didn't I

notice it?

Why am I so stupid?

This was Jiu'er's own choice.

Let's let her leave in dignity.

Jiu'er.

Please don't let me go.

Han Zheng!

Han Zheng!

Han Zheng!

Han Zheng!

Han Zheng!

Brother Han!

Come out!

Han Zheng!

Han Zheng!

Brother Han, calm down.

Brother Han!

Han Zheng!

Han Zheng!

Brother Han!

Han Zheng!

-Han Zheng! -Brother Han!

Han Zheng!

Han Zheng!

♫If I have never touched your body temperature♫

Han Zheng!

The Qi Vital Stone cannot bring people back from the dead.

You might die!

Han Zheng!

♫I didn't know my love arose in the haze♫

Come out!

Brother Han!

Without the Qi Vital Stone,

you might die!

♫Dashing the dreams of the world♫

Han Zheng!

Then I will

leave with her.

♫Our paths are different but we will end up together♫

Han Zheng!

Brother Han!

Come out!

Silly boy!

♫The growth rings engraved by the sunlight♫

Why are you doing this?

-Han Zheng! -Brother Han!

-Han Zheng! -Brother Han!

♫Our gazes are of precious tacit understanding♫

Don't do anything stupid, Brother Han!

♫I miss you so much♫

Han Zheng!

Brother Han!

Come out, Han Zheng!

♫We'll cherish each other as proof♫

Han Zheng!

♫I'll spend the rest of my life with you♫

♫I only wish to see the stars with you during the long night♫

♫In my dream, we are together, our eyes are bright♫

♫It's a long journey without hesitation♫

♫I'll spend the rest of my life with you♫

♫Life and death are vast, told by love♫

♫Wind dances with the flowers and rain waters the plants♫

♫Hold one person's hand forever and never let them down♫

We promised

to be together all our lives.

Let's both keep that promise.

♫The mark of a promise♫

♫So I can spend the best of times with you♫

♫It's destiny♫

♫Time is unparalleled, love is deep♫

♫I'll spend the rest of my life with you♫

♫Life and death are vast, told by love♫

♫Wind dances with the flowers and rain waters the plants♫

♫Hold one person's hand forever and never let them down♫

I thought only my death

would maintain peace between the two races.

The dispute between the two races would end

and the people would live in peace.

As for me, I would live on

as the heroine of the Inspection Bureau

in an opera script.

[Inspection Bureau]

I would be immortalized.

But Han Zheng

risked his life to save me.

He told me

I'm not just

Su Jiu'er of the Inspection Bureau.

Thank you.

Congratulations. Thank you.

Please come in.

-Congratulations. -Thank you.

[A perfect match]

Greetings, King of Xueqi.

Congratulations.

Congratulations.

Thank you.

Thank you.

Congratulations.

Thank you for coming.

Your Highness.

The King of Xueqi is so majestic and imperious.

He must be very worldly.

Well...

Fortunately, we signed the Qian-Qi Six Treaties.

Otherwise, there was no way we would have won the war.

We can't appear

weaker than him.

How about this?

Good.

Very good.

Enjoy yourselves.

Okay, don't worry.

The weather in Jiuxiao City is very hot.

Your Majesty, Teacher, is it okay with you?

Your Majesty?

Your Majesty!

What did you just say?

The Qian are too noisy.

It works well.

It works well.

Everyone.

The bride and groom will be here soon.

Here's the thing.

Let's go inside and take a seat, okay?

Please come in.

Come in.

Come in, please.

Your Majesty.

What?

Let's go in.

Give it back to us.

I think you're more noisy than a Qian.

Chilan.

I heard you won at the Xuandong Grand Ceremony.

Congratulations to the new King of Qi in advance.

Your Highness,

I have something to tell you.

Although we've signed the Qian-Qi Six Treaties,

I have some new clauses to add.

Let's talk about it later.

Today

is Brother Han and Jiu'er's

wedding day.

Do we have to talk shop today?

Aren't you the Crown Prince now?

It's not easy for me

to meet with you.

I can't miss

such a good opportunity.

It's not a big deal.

Coming.

New King of Qi.

Coming, Your Highness.

The bride and groom are here.

My heart hurts.

I want to steal the groom.

Shut up!

Put your hand down.

Applaud.

Bow to your parents.

Help!

Help!

What's wrong?

Nothing.

I think I heard wrong.

Bow to your parents.

Help!

Is anyone there?

Help!

No, Han Zheng.

I didn't hear wrong.

Someone is really calling for help.

Then...

Why did you get up?

-Father. -Mother.

We need to save someone first.

We'll be back soon.

Don't leave yet, everyone.

We'll be back soon.

Let's go.

Jiu'er.

Wait.

Jiu'er.

I can't speed around anymore.

Are they getting married or not?

I've never been married.

How would I know?

Oh no.

His Highness is just like

a normal Qian now.

-It’s none of your business. -It's none of your business.

At least

they can grow old together.

That's great.

Liu Fu.

Applaud.

Where's Han Zheng?

I'm sorry.

Why did I leave you behind?

I- I'm not used to

my body.

It's okay.

After all, what you have now

is the Qi race's

most formidable power.

It's normal that

you're not used to it yet.

♫I'm only fond of you, my expectations won't be wasted♫

♫I'm used to depending on you now♫

[The End]

Boss, don't play dead.

Give me a refund now!

♫A faraway city, a lonesome figure♫

Come here.

Boss.

♫It's strange outside Jiuxiao City, I ran into you♫

You said it yourself.

There's a Shuobei extra after the finale.

But there's nothing.

♫Our love begins with us joking around♫

You're not delivering on your promises.

♫There's warmth and love in your fingertips♫

♫I want to travel mountains and lakes with you♫

Isn't there another page?

♫Beyond the waters and the moonlight, willfulness is lovely too♫

Your Highness?

Why is it you?

♫I'll give you a clear sky after the wind and rain♫

Does a dream count?

♫Your smile comes with the wind♫

Why doesn't it?

♫I am glad to have you when I wake up from my dream♫

Your Highness.

Don't scam us.

Give us a refund!

♫I realized love has its own arrangement after meeting♫

Give us a refund, quickly.

♫We'll understand our feelings in the warmth after the cold night♫

Next volume.

Next volume?

Next volume.

Next volume?

♫I'll hold you in my arms outside Jiuxiao City♫

[Warm on a Cold Night]

Let me see.

♫Turn the past into dust♫

This is good, right?

♫I'm looking forward to our future♫

That's not bad.

Let's go.

Next volume!

Next volume!

Bravo!
