(Ji Clan's Campaign Against Zhuan Yu)

Mister Shiqi...

Bao.

What's the matter, Ear?

The people from the palace

have been waiting for almost an hour.

They keep urging me

to check if Mister Shiqi's up yet.

We told them, didn't we?

Lord Qin is sick.

He's terribly ill.

He's bedridden.

But...

Bao, you go.

Chang'er can't lie to save his life.

He'll slip up
if they keep asking questions.

Oh, my back! My back... It hurts!

I can't get up.

What will it take

to make it better, Bao?

I need

Fengying Pavillion's grilled meat.

But that's some pricey meat.

I can't afford it.

I heard it costs three strings of coins.

Can do.

Lord Qin,

I'll see to it
that those palace attendants

are sent on their way.

I won't let them disturb Your Highness.

Give me the umbrella.

(Changzhou City)

(Recalling...)

Lieutenant He,

is this letter ready to be sent?

I thought...

You thought what?

I thought

you would explain to Lord Qin.

After all,

we have taken Changzhou,
haven't we?

Li Ni asked for my help,

and I should just help him?

I came for Changzhou City.

How else can we justify it

to our Cui Army soldiers?

Besides,

he made the Cui Army

come here with this letter.

Shouldn't I get

some compensation myself?

Grand Governor.

Do not spread word of this.

It could affect morale.

Yes.

It's just

that the poison is so vicious,

we should find out

who is behind this.

No need.

I fear leaving such a threat

by your side, Grand Governor.

The 100,000 troops
which conquered Baiyue

suffered losses during the journey,

and only

60,000 returned.

I didn't expect

to lose them

in Changzhou again.

That old Cui Yi is truly

a formidable enemy.

Grand Governor,

Cui Yi has taken Changzhou.

We may stand a chance

if he clashes with the court.

Only Li Ni can confront Cui Yi

in the court.

I suspect
that Cui Yi's southern campaign

was most likely Li Ni's idea.

To think that a day would come

where I, Sun Jing,

find myself in such a state.

For now,

we can only hold Tong Pass

and capture the great imperial grandson,
Li Xuanze, as soon as possible,

to break the deadlock.

For days,

Li Ni has refused
to obey the imperial edict!

This rebellious son!

He's trying to infuriate me to death!

A few more days,

and the Cui family's forces

will reach Xichang!

Father,

the Cui family has taken over Changzhou.

They could take over Danzhou and Luzhou
anytime they want if they willed.

We are in a critical state.

Yet, Li Ni refuses to obey orders

and consider the bigger picture,
he deserves to be punished.

Punishment again!

That's all you know!

If I punished Lord Qin, would you
go to command the troops in his stead?

Can you do it?

Jun.

Jun!

Don't take Father's words to heart.

He only reprimanded you

because he loves you deeply.

That Ni as well.
He usually understands the big picture.

Why has he suddenly

become so temperamental?

Can't you see it?

Li Ni is doing this deliberately.

He's using this

to make Father angry with me.

Jun,

a few days ago,
I went to Ni's residence,

hoping to mediate.

If I could persuade Ni,

the matter would be resolved.

But Ni showed me no tact.

I advise you

not to touch this matter again.

You'll only humiliate yourself.

Jun...

Father.

Why did you return?

Father,

I figure Ni might have something in mind

when he refused to lead the troops.

Something in mind?

Elaborate.

The war in Changzhou is tense.

I think it's better
if you give into his demands

if he has any, Father.

Then ask him

what is it that he wants.

I can't ask him directly.

If I do,

Ni will definitely evade the question.

Nonsense!

I'm his father!

Why can't I ask him?

Rest assured, Father.

I will do my best to find out

and persuade Ni to lead the troops.

It's good that you understand me, Lai.

Your brother is reckless.

I can't count on him.

(On the banks
of the Han River near Changzhou,)

(the fish are plump and delicious.)

(Boatmen catch fresh fish
and sell them in the city,)

(grilled to perfection.)

(Recalling the jests from our travels,)

(I can't help but smile.)

(I look forward to the day you come,)

(so we can enjoy
the grilled fish together.)

Mister Shiqi!

Mister Shiqi!

Mister Shiqi.

You reek of alcohol.

Mister Shiqi,

you were right.

Guards of Lord Qi's Residence

did invite me to drink with them.

How did it go?

We drank three jars of good liquor.

Per your instructions,

I boasted with them for quite a while,

and slipped that statement

in the midst of the banter.

Let's see if Li Lai catches on.

Mister Shiqi,

where are you going?

Fishing.

Fishing?

One needs to brush up

on one's fishing skills first
before one can grill fish.

Why is the floor all wet?

Mind your step, Lord Qi.

It's fine.

Ni.

Ni.

Lai!

What brings you here?

I've come to visit you.

Are you feeling better?

Oh, to be honest with you,

the imperial physician said
my vitality is greatly depleted.

He advised me

to sit quietly by the water

to absorb
the essence of heaven and earth.

But, you know,

Father ordered me
to reflect in seclusion

and not leave my residence.

So,

I came up with an idea.

Look,

I'm sitting

by the water now,

though this pond is a bit small.

I had them

sprinkle water all around this area.

It's a clever idea.

It kills two birds with one stone.

Well, I'm just trying to recover
from my illness as soon as possible.

Ni,

I'm here today for another reason.

I've persuaded Father

to return the Zhenxi Army to you.

How can that be?

Under the heavens, there is no land
that is not the emperor's,

and within the land, there is
no subject that is not his vassal.

The Zhenxi Army is the military power
of the court.

How can you say it is mine?

Ni,

Changzhou

has been occupied by Cui Yi,

Sun Jing is entrenched in Tong Pass,

and Xichang is in imminent danger.

Jun acted recklessly,

and Father has already reprimanded him.

Father has decreed in his edict

that you should resume

the role of commander-in-chief,

taking charge of Zhenxi Army affairs,

and immediately lead troops
to reinforce Changzhou.

If you still refuse to reconcile,

then I can only apologize to you

on Father's behalf.

Lai.

You doing this will paint me

as disloyal and unfilial.

Father just wants you

to accept the imperial decree.

If I accept the decree,

provisions and troops
must not be withheld.

Of course.

Although my health is deteriorating,

with your sincere request

and Father's earnest expectation,

I'll reluctantly

accept it.

You understand the greater good.

Lieutenant He.

Lieutenant He,

Lord Qin really is coming.

(The Art of War)
Let him come.

You mentioned

inviting him for grilled fish.

He's quite something.

Without saying a word,

he led troops straight to Changzhou.

So what if he does?

Can't he just bring his troops

and enjoy grilled fish with us?

That's not what I meant.

Lieutenant He,

do you think

we've fallen into his trap?

Look,

he first wrote to us

and instructed us

to help General Pei Yuan

and annihilate

Sun Jing's army which conquered Baiyue.

But in the blink of an eye,

he's leading his troops

straight to Changzhou.

If Li Ni is really capable,

he should recapture

Changzhou City.

Take a look.

We've gathered quite a bit.

With what we collected last time,

I figure

we should have at least 20 taels.

That's great!

We can finally redeem Madam Qin and Xi
from the theater troupe.

That's why they say

it's better to be a dog
in times of peace

than a person in chaotic times.

How many people do you think

couldn't survive the chaos of war?

Take Madam Qin, for example.

After performing for years,
she still ended up in debt.

The troupe owner forced her
into prostitution

and even tried to sell
her daughter to a brothel.

If it weren't for us,

she and her daughter

might have been forced
to drown themselves.

Saving people is a righteous act.

Why did we rise up

from Mingdai Mountain,

join Zhenxi Army,

and follow Mister Shiqi into battle?

Isn't it to bring peace

and allow more poor people

to live a better life
after the chaos settles?

Isn't that right?

Youde is right.

Youde is right.

Youde is right.

Let me think

and come up with another way
to make some money.

If we help, we help to the end.

We must find a good place

for Madam Qin and Xi to settle.

- Yes.
- That's right.

Bottoms up!

Bottoms up!

Young Master.

I heard that Lord Qin
has taken command of Zhenxi Army again

and is coming to reclaim Changzhou.

(Jieshuo Grassland)

Chief Wuluo.

It seems

that your body has fully recovered.

Yes.

(Jieshuo, Wuluo)
I promised to save you,

and now it's your turn

to fulfill what you promised me.

You used your clan's
life-extending method

to save my life,

making my previously ailing body

healthy like an ordinary person's.

I can still draw my bow

and shoot like a warrior,

but I cannot hand over

Cui Army's defense map of Yingzhou to you.

Nor can I join you

in attacking Yingzhou.

Are you planning
to go back on your word?

Keep in mind

that you have taken
the life-extending medicine.

If I stop giving you

the medicine on time,

your bones will break,

and you will die.

You said this before.

Eagles soar in the wilderness

because they have found prey.

Even the bison shivers

when the eagles spread their wings
in the mountains.

I know the tricks and schemes
of those of the Central Plains.

I also know

how to make them
turn against each other.

If you are willing to trust me,

send a team to infiltrate

the Central Plains with me.

I will ensure that you'll see the returns

for saving my life.

As soon as Lord Qin leaves Xichang,

we will have the opening to attack.

He's in the open,

I'm in the shadows.

There's plenty of time

to plan.

Lord Qin has arrived near Changzhou.

We have a chance to strike now.

Ying,

this time,

I will do whatever it takes

to get you back to my side.

Great General.

Time for your medicine.

I've been drinking this medicine
for more than ten years,

and I don't know when it'll end.

Good medicine tastes bitter
but is beneficial to health.

Your old injuries

always flare up on rainy days,

that's why

you mustn't stop taking this medicine.

Come on, drink it.

It's good for your health.

Yes, I know.

You're the only one
who can order me around.

I heard that the emperor has ordered Li Ni

to lead troops to Changzhou.

Changzhou is easy to defend
and difficult to attack.

Even if he comes, so what?

Is Father afraid of him?

Let me make this clear first.

I won't be showing any mercy

in this confrontation with Lord Qin
on the battlefield.

You mustn't hold back at all, Father.

Li Ni is young and arrogant.

We must show him

my father's might.

Of course.

(Changzhou)

Here you go.

Please take this.

Take care.

Lieutenant He.

This rose lychee cherry blossom pastry

(Tang Confectionery)
from Tang Confectionery looks really pretty.

Look,

it's like a flower,

and it has a pretty name too.

Oh,

you little glutton.

It tastes great.

Wait for me.

Don't walk so fast.

Young Master?

Young Master?

Young Master?

Who are you?

Why did you impersonate Young Master
and lure me here?

Don't hurt her!

Lieutenant He, are you all right?

Oh no! Be careful!

They're using poison!

What are your plans

in Changzhou?

Are you actually planning

to lead the army
to charge straight through

and fight to the death
with the Cui Army?

Of course not.

I have another plan to obtain Changzhou.

Make the Cui Army
withdraw from Changzhou

without drawing swords?

Lieutenant He

never lets herself suffer any losses.

You wrote a letter

asking her to save General Pei Yuan.

Well, she did.

But she also occupied Changzhou
in the process.

That's so calculative of her.

Mister Shiqi,

you're definitely going

to be a henpecked husband.

You can't outsmart her.

Can we get down to business?

Isn't this business?

General, a carrier pigeon
has delivered a message.

How did this pigeon find you?

Training it
must have been quite difficult.

There's nothing too difficult

for someone determined.

Do you think pigeon meat

tastes good?

I'm just a rough guy.

I'm satisfied with the grilled meat

from Fengying Pavilion.

Last time, you said your back hurt,

and I gave you some money, didn't I?

Well, I had some expenses

before leaving the capital.

Bao,

try to save up when you can.

When the day comes
that we don't have to fight anymore,

you can return home, buy some land,

and get yourself a wife.
Wouldn't that be nice?

We'll cross the bridge
when we get to it.

When it is time

to remove my armor and retire,

I will save up to buy some land

and get a wife, of course.

But for now,

Mister Shiqi,

do you think

pigeon meat tastes good?

Thanks.

Off you go!

(Someone tried to kill Lieutenant He
and she has been poisoned.)

Young Master,

stop drinking.

Drinking in the middle of the night
is harmful to your health.

I wonder if Ying's poison

has been cured.

Young Master,

we won't be able to force Li Ni out

if we don't use this method.

If the Lieutenant He blames you,

just say it was my idea.

No.

She won't blame me.

Ying is about to marry me.

How could she blame me?

Is the dessert soup ready already?

Why is it you?

Why couldn't it be me?

You've acquired Changzhou.

Shouldn't I sneak in late at night

and kidnap you

in exchange for Changzhou?

If Your Highness wanted to kidnap me,

why did you bring the dessert soup?

I have to coax you

into coming with me.

I came alone.

If you made a fuss,
and I failed to kidnap you,

and ended up getting captured myself,
wouldn't that be a great loss?

You think you can get me to comply
with just a bowl of dessert soup?

Besides,

you didn't

make this.

Taozi did.

I don't see your sincerity at all.

Aren't you afraid

I'll call them to come in

and tie you up

and hand you over to my father?

Do whatever you want.

It's just as well that I'm here to discuss
the matter of Changzhou

with Great General Cui.

Now, drink your medicine.

I got quite the scare
when I received Taozi's message

from the carrier pigeon.

I rushed here immediately.

Here.

It must be bitter.

I'll taste it for you.

Why did you just drink it?

This is the antidote to the poison.

It's all about
fighting poison with poison.

There's a high chance
that the antidote is poisonous too.

How could you drink it so carelessly?

I didn't know.

Why didn't you tell me it was poisonous?

Oh, dear.

Are you all right?

Shiqi!

I feel awful...

Shiqi!

Are you all right, Shiqi?

What's wrong?

Shiqi!

Shiqi! Wake up!

Shiqi!

Well?

It's not bitter, right?

How dare you trick me!

I would never.

I'm just helping you taste
how bitter this medicine is.

It's not bitter, isn't it?

Don't believe me?

Try again.

Hurry and leave.

Too late.

Surround the perimeter!

Lord Qin,

you dare to sneak into Changzhou at night

and trespass into my residence.

It's been several months.

Great General Cui, have you been well?

Lieutenant He,

this man sneaked into General's Residence
in the middle of the night

to coerce you into revealing information

to take over Changzhou, is that correct?

No, Great General...

Men.

Take this intruder away.

Great General!

It's not what you think it is!

No!

Lieutenant He.

Breaking into the General's Residence

with the intention
of stealing military secrets.

You know how it is to be dealt with

according to the regulations
of the Cui Army.

For the next few days,

you shall be restricted
to your quarters as well,

to prevent you from releasing him.

Taozi!

Why are you here?

What's happening outside?

Great General threw Lord Qin
into the water dungeon.

When I heard,

I tried to get information,

but I was found out.

Great General sent his men

to bring me back.

He also told me

that neither you nor I

are allowed to step out of this room.

Otherwise,

we will be dealt with
according to military law.

Li Ni claims to be

the best scout in the Zhenxi Army.

(Yet, he got caught by Father)

(just like that)

(for trying to sneak in to see me.)

(What should we do now?)

(If he's the best scout,)

he shouldn't leave himself

without a way out, right?

What way out?

Where's your whistle?

Right, if Lord Qin is here,

Ear is likely here too.

I'll use the whistle to call him.

Lieutenant He,

it's already daylight,

but Ear hasn't come.

Lord Qin wouldn't come alone, would he?

He wouldn't.

Xie Chang'er must be here too.

Lieutenant He. Taozi.

Breakfast.

Taozi!

What took you so long?

I've almost worn out my whistle.

I thought you wouldn't come.

I knew

you would find a way

to see us.

I came late.

Security here is tight.

It took me a lot of effort

to knock out one person and get in.

I'm sorry.

I'll forgive you this time.

Where's Mister Shiqi?

Lord Qin has been locked
in the water dungeon.

Lieutenant He and I
are under house arrest too.

That's why we needed your help.

No wonder I waited outside all night

and didn't see him.

He's now locked in the water dungeon.

You have to help me

to get him out.

But how can I help?

Your outfit

will come in handy.

I can't believe

the higher-ups would send breakfast
to a spy like you.

If you ask me,

they should've let you starve.

It's tougher than a rock.

Will you worry about me,

knowing I'm locked up here?

Are you taking your medicine

on time?

Your father is so strict.

Maybe

when I get out of here,

we should elope.

What do you say?

Let's do that.

You're here.

You were thrown into the dungeon
because of me.

Of course, I had to come and see you.

Did you say yes

to my proposal?

What proposal?

To elope.

And what if I change my mind?

This time,

I'm not letting you go,

no matter what.

All right.

Since I see

you're lively and well,

I don't have to worry anymore.

You just stay here

in the cell.

When my father calms down,

he'll let you out.

Are you really leaving?

You're not kidding?

You're really leaving?

Soldier!

Who was that?

I don't recognize them.

It's the general's personal guard.

Of course, we wouldn't recognize them.

The general's personal guard
at such a young age?

She actually left.

Why did you come back?

How can I save you without the key?

I knew you wouldn't abandon me.

Come on.

We have to hurry.

Father wouldn't let me leave my room.

I had to sneak out.

I can't be out for long.

Le's go.

The keys for those weren't kept here.

My father probably has them on him.

Besides, it'll be easier to get out

with these shackles.

Come on.

Let's go.

You're something indeed, Lord Qin.

You dare to coerce my lieutenant

to help you escape?

Great General Cui,

I came for the matter of Changzhou.

I should have visited you

openly and courteously,

but I was afraid you might misunderstand

if I came with soldiers,

so I entered the residence alone.

You have a silver tongue.

Great General,

Ying hasn't slept all night.

Let her go back to her room and rest.

Whether you want to kill
or interrogate me, I'll comply.

Don't worry.

Great General Cui is valiant and honorable.

He would never kill recklessly.

He won't kill me.

Don't try to flatter me.

Don't think
that putting me on a pedestal

will save you from being killed.

You wouldn't do that.

Go.

You have affections for my daughter.

Yes.

Great General,

I have admired Miss Cui for a long time.

I ask for your blessing.

If you truly love Ying,

I am not unwilling to make way for you.

Really?

But you have to promise me one thing.

As long as it doesn't go against
loyalty and righteousness,

I, Li Ni, will go through anything for you.

I want you to give up on Changzhou,

marry into the Cui family,

and take over the Cui Army.

In return, I will betroth Ying to you.

Great General,

I cannot do that.

Are you worried
that marrying into the Cui family

will tarnish your reputation?

Great General,

why ask when you already know?

The emperor guides his subjects,
and the father guides his sons.

As the son of His Majesty,

if I were to marry into the Cui family,

I would be betraying
both His Majesty and my father.

Moreover, the Cui family
having me marry into their family

would be seen as an insult
to His Majesty by the entire court.

If the ruler is humiliated,
the subjects should die.

The court would demand

for the destruction of the Cui Army,

plunging the nation

into prolonged warfare once again.

That would be disloyal to my country

and unfilial to my father.

I cannot comply.

You're quick to refuse.

In that case,
there's nothing more to say.

Back to the water dungeon for you.

Great General,
I don't want to go back there.

That's not for you to decide.

Great General,

Ying's poison hasn't been fully removed.

I want to stay

and take care of her.

Once she recovers,

you can deal with me as you please.

Very well.

It's commendable

that you can think this way.

Does this mean

you agree, Great General?

However, for trespassing into my residence

and attempting to escape,

according to the military laws
of the Cui Army,

you must be whipped.

Only then can I release you
from the dungeon.

Lord Qin,

the water dungeon or the whip.

The choice is yours.

I will receive the whip.

Good,

straightforward.

Men.

Bring the whip.

Yes.

Great General,

Ying's room isn't far from here.

I don't want to disturb her.

Let's move outside.

All right.

You should have been imprisoned
for 30 days,

but today I'll give you 30 lashes
to substitute.

How does that sound?

I only ask that you avoid my face.

I do not wish to make Ying worry.

All right.

As you wish.

Avoid his face.

Yes.

Ying,

you're up.

Father didn't lock you up again?

I moved him with my sincerity.

Sincerity?

I told him

I didn't want Changzhou anymore.

He was so pleased

that he spared me

and let me accompany you.

Nonsense.

If you really said that,

my father would've said this.

"Do you think you can capture Changzhou
just because you have the Zhenxi Army?

Without a battle,
how do you know the outcome?"

You mimic

your father well.

Come on.

Tell me what you told my father.

I never imagined
he would let you come into my room.

I told him

that you like me,

and if you can't see me,

you won't be able to eat,

and you won't take your medicine.

For the sake of your well-being,

it's best to let me in

to accompany you.

Your Father, reluctantly,

relented in the end.

I knew it.

You must have used me against my father.

What's wrong?

Nothing.

Are you injured?

No.

Let me see.

Are you hurt?

No.

Something's not right. Undress.

How can a woman

make a man undress?

If you don't,

I'll have someone tie you up.
I'll do it myself.

No, I won't let you.

Are you hungry?

I'll make you something to eat.

Remove your clothes!

How many lashes did Father give you?

30.

You're Lord Qin!

Couldn't you have pulled rank

and stop him?

Tell him that he is still a subject.

You claim to be

Zhenxi Army's best scout.

Why don't you use your skills to escape?

As if they would actually

chase you all the way
to the Zhenxi Army camp.

There, there, Ying.

Don't cry.

Don't be upset.

I'm not.

So you say,
but your face is all red from anger.

How can you be so dumb?

Ying,

think about it.

If we have a daughter,

delicate and pampered,

the apple of our eye,

and suddenly one day,

a brat dares to barge into her room,

climb onto her bed,

and kiss her,

I would rip him into pieces

if I found out.

30 lashes

would already be letting him off easy.

Who would have a daughter with you?

A son is fine too.

We can have a son instead.

Anyway,

don't be upset over this,

and don't blame Mister Cui.

Great General Cui.

Where's Taozi?

The medicine is ready.

I'll go get it for you.

I need to get the medicine from her.

But your medicine's already ready?

The salve for your injuries.

Your wounds are already in that state.

If we don't apply the medicine today,
it will surely fester by tomorrow.

Then I'll go get it.

But when I bring it back,

will you help me apply it?

Suit yourself.

You're so dumb.

You deserve to suffer.

♪If I forget the fleeting of time♪

♪Waiting for memories♪

♪To shatter and sink♪

♪The emotional scars in your heart♪

♪Are the entanglement♪

♪I find hard to let go of♪

♪If longing is not forgotten♪

♪I long to return
to the very first moment♪

♪The affection we had
in our fateful situation♪

♪How I wish to keep it for you♪

♪If love still remembers♪

♪The promises we made♪

♪Even if this love hurts me♪

♪I'll continue living for you♪

♪Holding onto the memories♪

♪Waiting is my persistence♪

♪If love remembers♪

♪The promise I made to you♪

♪Despite going against fate♪

♪I have no regrets loving you♪

♪I'm willing to sacrifice for you♪

♪As I wait for your answer♪

♪If love remembers♪

♪The promise I made to you♪
