(A Journey to Love)

(Episode 21)

The medicines from An,

whether it's the Panacea Pill

or the Birth Pill,

are indeed very effective.

It's the Rebirth Pill,

a tribute from the Sha Xi Tribe.

Since Li Tong Guang has formed a marital alliance with the Chu family,

Duke Chu will naturally give him the best that he has.

So to say,

your disciple isn't that bad after all.

If you want to cry, go ahead.

I'll keep watch for you, and no one will notice.

No need.

Drink this then.

I don't want to drink alcohol.

I know.

Sun Lang just made a red date and longan soup.

It can help increase blood count.

It's good for beauty.

It's beneficial for your skin.

I don't want to cry in front of him.

I'm afraid he will be worried.

I know.

Me too.

But last night,

you were the only one whose eyes weren't teary.

That's how I am.

In this life,

I've had the best wine,

seen the most beautiful women,

fought the most thrilling battles,

and had the most loyal brothers.

My life has been fulfilling.

If Yuan Zhou didn't make it through this time,

I'd also pour a bottle of wine for him.

Anyway, in a few years, we'll have to meet again at Yama's palace.

You have a positive attitude.

I hope you and Yuan Zhou can also maintain a positive attitude.

You two have been fussing for a long time.

Even though I was watching from the side, I couldn't persuade you.

Because I know that everyone has their own persistence and feelings.

Just like when you tried to convince me.

If you forced me into marriage, I would rather die.

- But... - You don't have to persuade me.

What did you think I would say?

Chief Ning is so pitiful,

please don't leave him?

What were you thinking about?

I'm worried about you.

I saw how you looked last night.

You gave up half your blood to save him.

Without him by your side, the one who can't endure it is you.

Hear me out.

I know both of you are strong,

but being strong doesn't mean you don't deserve to be afraid or protected.

Every woman is like a flower, and every man is like a tree.

In this vast world,

it's so hard to find someone who can mutually support each other.

You have someone worth sacrificing for.

So what problems can't be solved?

I said you don't need to persuade me

because I've already figured it out.

Thanks.

Where are you going?

Assign someone to keep an eye on the An people.

The actions of those men in black are too mysterious.

While Li Tong Guang is investigating,

you have to investigate too.

Don't worry, Sun Lang has already gone with our men.

That's good.

And the inn.

Keep an eye on it.

In case the men in black come again at night.

We also need to investigate He County thoroughly.

I don't believe these men in black

emerged out of nowhere.

Also,

go to Jinsha House,

inquire with Jin Mei Niang.

Shi San already sent a letter to Jinsha House.

Don't worry.

That's good.

If it's a serious matter,

I believe Jin Mei Niang won't make things difficult for him.

I'm a little tired.

- Help me lie down. - Okay.

Take a break. Have a good rest.

Let's go.

Come in.

You've been standing there for a long time.

You...

Lie down with me for a while.

- I have something to... - Actually, I...

Let me speak first this time,

okay?

Okay.

In fact, I've wanted to say this for a long time,

but I didn't have much energy yesterday.

After having a close brush with death this time,

I realized I'm a complete fool.

I have someone as good as you by my side, but I didn't cherish you.

Even though we've experienced life-and-death situations,

I quarreled with you for so long

over Li Tong Guang

and some trivial matters.

Indeed.

I only noticed that your eyes were small before.

Who knew you could be so small-minded too when it came to jealousy?

I won't do it again.

This time,

I saw you risking everything to save me,

and I swore in my mind that

as long as I wake up,

I'll never let go of your hand again.

It's not completely your problem.

It's also my fault for not explaining to you in advance.

No, it's all my fault.

It's all my fault.

Ru Yi.

In the future,

no matter what you want to do,

I'll always be with you,

regardless of whether you want to roam the world

or settle down in a lively place.

In short,

I won't impose my will on you anymore.

I'll listen to your thoughts,

respect your choices

and respect every decision you make.

But haven't you grown tired of the mundane world

and wished to retreat to the mountains?

There are so many things I've grown tired of.

I'm tired of

seeing Qian Zhao's poker face,

tired of

Shi San's sarcastic remarks,

and even tired of Yuan Lu being mischievous.

Yet, aren't they still my brothers?

After we settle this matter,

let's wander around the Central Plains for a while.

Then, we'll go visit Her Majesty's grave.

We can also

go to Jinsha House

to have a drink with Jin Mei Niang.

If you miss those guys,

I'll take you to the palace to see how Qian Zhao is doing,

and rescue

Yu Shi San, who is forced to do labor as a punishment for gambling.

Then, we'll visit Yuan Lu

and check out his new inventions.

Also, we'll get a couple of cats for Sun Lang.

Right, Ying should've been married by then.

We can teach her husband a lesson together.

Okay.

If you're tired of it all,

we can find a small island to stay on for a while.

While I study swordsmanship,

you can engage in fishing, woodcutting, farming, and reading.

During your leisure time, you can also kill a chicken or catch a fish

to keep me healthy.

How does that sound?

Okay.

But from now on,

let's never be apart again.

Okay?

I'm a little cold.

You gave me all your blood,

so of course, you're cold.

What's yours is mine,

and what's mine

is still mine.

Superior, I'm freezing.

This is my loyal servant. Give her the best medicine.

Yes, Marquis.

How is the investigation going?

We've only examined a few bodies.

There are no traces on the weapons and clothing.

These people must have come prepared.

But judging from the formation, they are Crimson Guards.

- Where are the bodies? - Over there.

Marquis.

(Military Camp, He County)

Where are the bodies of the first few women who attacked us?

The bodies of the women are here.

They are indeed Crimson Guards.

Master once told me that

if Crimson Guards fail their missions, they will be severely punished.

They usually target this area,

so their bones here are more crooked than those of ordinary people.

Could it be because you drove them out of He County last time,

and they were seeking revenge out of spite?

I don't care why.

Take our men to the two nearest branches of the Crimson Guard

and smash them.

Then, tell Deng Hui that

if he doesn't provide an explanation within three days,

I'll report it directly to His Majesty.

You suspect that Commander Deng did it?

But he only regards His Majesty as his master,

and he has no personal grudge against you.

He doesn't,

but his subordinate, Left Guard Chen Gui, might.

Throughout this year, he has always been in contact with Lord He Dong.

Moreover, in my heart,

I only regard my master as the Left Guard of the Crimson Guard.

So...

That's impossible.

What's going on?

It's the diplomatic team from Wu.

They sent someone to inspect the bodies this morning.

I haven't had time to report to you yet.

It's Northern Pan.

How is that possible?

This is a secret passage dug by the Northern Pan people.

When I was a kid, I heard adults mentioning that

Northern Pan had frequent conflicts with the Central Plains.

But aren't they in the harsh and cold northern regions?

That's right.

Although Northern Pan resides in the north,

they have always had ulterior motives.

More than 60 years ago,

Emperor Lie of the previous dynasty sacrificed himself in war

and finally defeated the Northern Pan Tribe.

But the previous dynasty also suffered significant losses,

leading to its disintegration.

After that, the world evolved into the present division of nine regions.

Fifty years ago,

the rulers of An, Wu and Chu established an alliance

to construct Tianmen Pass, which can guard within hundreds of miles,

and each sent 3,000 troops to guard the entire area of Tianmen Pass,

ensuring peace in the Central Plains.

Later, Chu was defeated, and Our Majesty was defeated by Emperor An.

Only then was Tianmen Pass included in the territory of An.

Perhaps the war two months ago

provided an opportunity for the Northern Pan Tribe to take action again.

Look.

Their fifth teeth on both sides were sharpened.

Also,

look at this.

I, Sun Lang, am most familiar with the fur of various beasts.

This kind of fur is typical of the black beasts found in Northern Pan.

Give it to me.

Marquis.

Why are there people from Northern Pan in the Crimson Guard?

Indeed, why did people from Northern Pan appear here?

Sharpened teeth

and the impenetrable Soft-Scale Armor yesterday.

- Wu Qian! - I'm here, Marquis.

Call the troops and immediately follow me to Tianmen Pass to investigate.

Yes, Marquis.

That's not necessary.

Chief Ning has already investigated this matter.

He asked me to pass on a message to you.

If you want to know what's going on,

meet him at the cave entrance next to the Earth God Temple

at Zuojia Mountain.

What is this for?

People from the Northern Pan are here.

I don't have time to fool around with you.

In the past two months, a total of six robberies occurred in He County.

Over 30 households in two villages have suffered,

but the officials of An hastily closed the case on the grounds of banditry.

Marquis Chang Qing, are you aware of these incidents?

Are you saying these incidents are related to the people of Northern Pan?

But Wu Qian, the Garrison General of He County, said

they had not discovered any traces of Northern Pan people before this.

That place.

It's the secret passage we found after following the men in black

back to the woods.

Although its entrance is narrow, it extends for dozens of miles inside,

leading directly to the outside of Tianmen Pass.

About dozens of miles long?

Have the Northern Pan people been planning this for a long time?

That's right.

A secret passage like this takes several years to complete.

In recent years, there have been continuous wars between An and Wu.

Your Emperor An

withdrew a considerable number of troops from Tianmen Pass,

giving the Northern Pan people the chance to build this secret passage.

The first time the villagers of He County suffered

was two months ago,

which means

the Northern Pan people probably opened the secret passage at that time.

While the two countries were at war,

the people from Northern Pan only dared to conduct reconnaissance

and then seize the opportunity to plunder

and kill the villagers before hastily returning.

Exactly.

This time, they mobilized nearly 100 people,

but the village they happened to attack

had little money, food or livestock left.

Therefore, they must have left in disappointment.

But what's more coincidental is that

when they were going back to the cave through the woods,

they encountered you, who was injured in the fight with the Crimson Guards.

You had fine carriages and horses, luxurious food and clothing.

Even your maid had jade ornaments on her hair.

How could they easily let go of such a ready-made opportunity?

That's when Six Realms Hall arrived for reinforcements.

The Northern Pan people wanted to retreat,

but they couldn't expose the location of the secret passage,

so they had no choice but to fight us to death.

That's right.

Marquis Chang Qing.

This matter concerns the safety of the people of An and Wu.

I've already sent a letter

to inform the officials in Capital of Wu about the situation.

Please also report to your emperor.

Urge him to strengthen the defense of Tianmen Pass and the secret passage.

Okay.

I'll do my best regarding the Northern Pan matter.

But I'm worried that the memorial may not reach His Majesty

and will be intercepted by the Crimson Guards.

What's more, I'm afraid His Majesty

only wants to plunder other countries and won't increase the defense here.

Over the years, he's been saying that Northern Pan people won't come.

So...

I'd like to ask your diplomatic team to set out with me as soon as possible

and rush back to Capital of An.

The attacks by Northern Pan and the Crimson Guard may be a coincidence,

but the Crimson Guard has ulterior motives.

To be on the safe side, we should promptly return to Capital of An.

In addition,

when you meet His Majesty,

I'd like Six Realms Hall to emphasize that you've already found out that

Northern Pan intends to march south again and break through Tianmen Pass.

All right,

after helping him so much, we still have to be the bad guys.

Okay.

I promise you on behalf of His Highness.

We can depart in four hours.

Chief, you've just recovered.

Can your body withstand the continuous journey?

I also have injuries.

In matters related to Northern Pan, Chief Ning is still so delicate.

Spare us from idle talk.

The people from Northern Pan are probably planning something big.

Otherwise, they wouldn't have dug a secret passage.

Besides, Her Highness is taking care of me.

Naturally,

these minor injuries are nothing.

He's mad.

This kid isn't entirely useless.

When it comes to serious matters, his fanatical energy is gone.

And Qian Zhao also said that

among the civil and military officials of An,

he's the most concerned about Northern Pan affairs.

That's for sure.

If he dares to fool around on such an important matter, I'll kill him.

But as soon as he saw me being intimate with you,

he started making insinuations again.

This is an illness that needs to be treated.

You really sound like an elder.

You're his master, and I'm naturally his master-in-law.

Of course, I'm his elder.

Your tone of insinuation matches his perfectly.

I said I'm his master-in-law,

and you admitted it.

Of course you can be his elder.

Saving half of your life with the Rebirth Pill wouldn't be in vain for him.

What pill? No...

He saved half my life?

What? No...

How... How did he save me?

My body hasn't fully recovered yet.

Come and help me!

I heard about it.

Ning Yuan Zhou from Six Realms Hall is quite impressive.

In just a few moves, he cut off the Northern Pan people's line of retreat.

He also spread the news of destroying the secret passage

to all the officials in He County,

attributing it to your credit.

It's just some superficial gestures.

Does he think this would make me, the marquis, listen to him?

Ridiculous.

Some guy, when he needs help from us, humbly refers to himself as "I".

Yet in an instant, he returns to addressing himself as Marquis.

- Who am I talking about? - Who?

- Who am I talking about? - I don't know.

I don't know either.

Marquis.

Calm down.

When we get to Capital of An, there will be time for them to beg me.

Bluffing.

Chief Ning.

Thanks.

I have to report something.

What's wrong?

One, two, three, four, five, six, seven.

Seven, six, five, four, three, two, one.

Let's go.

- One fatal blow. - Let's go.

I find myself lacking.

Don't go too far.

This young man is easily embarrassed.

If he gets angry, it might affect our mission.

Whatever. He already hated us.

- This time won't make a difference. - Whatever.

Marquis, Liu Li's injuries are too severe.

The physician said she shouldn't travel.

I took the liberty of letting her stay in He County.

Got it.

Tell our men to speed up.

Don't give the Wu people a chance to chat and joke around.

- Yes, Marquis. - Let's depart.

Let's go.

Let's go!

(Junzhou, An)

(Inn in Junzhou)

The food is here.

Chief, this inn actually has freshly made chicken soup.

You just took the antidote for Ten-day Poison.

Here, replenish yourself.

Okay.

You got the antidote from Zhang Song's subordinates?

Shi San and I personally went to get it.

They heard about Chief Ning's heroic deeds of killing all enemies

and gave it to us without a word of nonsense.

They complained a bit, saying that

they had no choice but to obey Zhang Song and Zhao Ji.

From now on, they will certainly obey your command.

Come on, Ru Yi, have a drumstick.

Thank you.

Here.

Shi San, this is for you.

Can't you give me chicken wings?

Wait.

You can't drink this soup.

I examined it, it's not poisonous.

Even if it's not poisonous, it can harm people.

There's shrimp broth in this soup.

Shrimp is a hot food that can slow down wound healing.

These meatballs are made of rabbit meat.

A combination of cold and hot food can easily lead to diarrhea.

Li Tong Guang, it must be him.

Is he crazy?

Why is he doing this?

I guess it might be that

he was too agitated because of Yuan Zhou and Ru Yi today.

It was a fatal blow. Our medicine hit hard.

This bastard.

I'm going to confront him.

Don't go, let me go.

This is a matter between us men.

It's okay for you to drink this soup.

Hurry up and drink it.

Who is it?

Did I scare you?

It's been a while since I practiced.

I'm a little rusty.

What do you want?

The chicken soup and meatballs you sent just now

tasted really good.

Is this how you express gratitude to your lifesaver?

I believe you also know that

my martial arts are far superior to yours.

I can easily kill you.

Those tricks of yours involving sending me incompatible food combinations

are just child's play.

Then why didn't you just kill me directly?

Why bother with all this nonsense?

I came today

to make a deal with you.

Li Tong Guang.

You've been working hard for so many years, carefully planning every step,

all to put an end to Emperor An's tyranny.

Unfortunately, you have great ambitions but only mediocre abilities.

As long as you join forces with Six Realms Hall,

you won't have to please Royal Consort Chu

and betray yourself anymore.

How do you know about

Royal Consort Chu?

I'm the head of Six Realms Hall.

I know everything that transpires across all six realms.

Although Wu was defeated at Tianmen Pass, our branch in An remains capable.

You're threatening me.

I just said, I came to make a deal with you.

Do you think

if you can return to Capital of An in time to meet Emperor An

and make us testify,

Emperor An might become concerned,

strengthen the defense against Northern Pan and reward you?

Stop indulging in your wishful thinking.

This is just an alarmist talk.

Of course not.

I'm afraid you don't even realize that

you're in big trouble.

I don't believe you.

I don't care if you believe me or not.

You're too young and too arrogant,

yet you have a limited level of cunning.

Do you think that among the civil and military officials,

there isn't one who can see that you're dissatisfied with Emperor An?

It's just that Emperor An always suppressed you,

so they didn't think you could stir up any trouble.

But now the situation has changed.

You were granted the title of Marquis,

and the Northern Pan matter earned you another merit.

Think about the two princes and those who hate you.

What will they do?

They will deny this military information

and say that I'm secretly colluding with Wu

to achieve merits for personal gain.

They won't be that foolish.

After all, all the officials in He County

are testifying to the Northern Pan matter.

I think they will surely

offer you a bright future for free.

Six Realms Hall received information that

after receiving our 100,000 taels of gold,

Emperor An intended to attack Chu, right?

Didn't you just achieve great merit?

Didn't you just become a marquis?

Then they'll nominate you to lead the war against Chu.

Not to mention that you don't want to start another war.

When you realize that your soldiers are all the weak and sick leftovers

from the war between An and Wu,

and the provisions are of poor quality,

what chance do you think you have of defeating Chu?

If you lose the first battle,

they will then accuse you of being disloyal to the emperor.

Will Emperor An spare you?

Don't try to scare me.

I'll instruct my men to thoroughly investigate these matters in advance.

They will never happen.

Do you have any friends after being an official for so many years?

Except for the one named Zhu Yin,

are you sure your subordinates would dare to offend the princes?

Will they obey you without question?

I have an engagement with the Chu family.

Duke Chu won't stand idly by.

But how come I heard that Princess Jin Ming

seems a bit dissatisfied with you as her husband?

And the story of the noblewomen in An marrying a second husband

is very common.

Emperor An is inclined toward war.

And those two princes are by no means virtuous individuals.

Behind every extraordinary military achievement lies a pile of dead bodies.

Li Tong Guang.

I know that you've always been against Emperor An starting another war.

That's why

I decided to help you.

Your Highness, please calm down.

Chief Ning specifically asked us to bring you here to listen to this

for you to have a clearer understanding of the political situation in An.

Political maneuvering might not be your forte,

but you must know about it.

If you don't outline a plan in advance,

I won't consider working with you.

Of course there is a plan.

First, pretend to be sick.

Just say after the assassination attempt,

you rush back to Capital of An without rest.

The civil and military officials won't let you go to war in a short time,

and Emperor An will also ask the Crimson Guard to give you an explanation.

Second,

you offended two princes at the same time previously.

But from today onward, you must side with the Second Prince.

Once the two princes fight with each other,

you'll have a window of opportunity.

Third,

regarding the marriage alliance with Duke Chu,

you need to put aside your pride and make more connections.

This way, you will gradually make friends among the officials.

Also, you need to please Princess Jin Ming.

After all, Duke Chu loves his daughter dearly.

Even if it's for the future grandson, he will support you.

Emperor An is nearly 50 years old.

He still hasn't chosen a crown prince.

But as long as Six Realms Hall intervenes,

the fight for the crown will take a heavy toll on both princes.

That timing

is the best chance for you to rise above all others.

With all due respect,

all of this is to support the Third Prince who is still a baby.

Cooperating with me

is much better than cooperating

with that royal consort.

You've said all this

just to hope that after I come to power,

I'll help you bring back Emperor Wu.

That's the correct answer.

Here's your reward.

However,

I have to add another condition.

From now onward, you're not allowed to work against us in any way.

And you must stay away from Her Highness.

You're not allowed to have any ulterior motives.

By setting these conditions,

you're just intentionally making things difficult for me.

I'm intentionally making things difficult for you.

Seeing someone who envies me has to bow down to me,

looking both resentful and helpless.

There's nothing more satisfying than this in this world.

Marquis Chang Qing.

The nation or the beauty.

Choose one.

I can't answer you now.

All right, it was worth it to talk to you tonight.

I'll go back now.

Sleep on it.

Wait.

What's the matter?

I have no personal relationship with Royal Consort Chu.

We're just working together.

I swear to God.

You don't need to explain to me.

Does Her Highness know?

Whether she knows or not, does this have anything to do with you?

Then don't tell her.

I know this doesn't have anything to do with her,

but I don't want her to misunderstand.

Even though I know she just looks like my master,

I don't want to see her looking at me with disdain.

You're back.

I'm back.

What are you looking at?

You're beautiful.

My dear Ru Yi is so beautiful and graceful.

No wonder that kid can't forget you.

Are you jealous again?

Or did the conversation not go well?

I'm not jealous.

Am I a jealous pot? Why would I be jealous all the time?

In my eyes, he's just a child.

Although he has a rebellious personality,

he'll probably be obedient if I teach him a lesson or two.

You really sound like an elder.

To be honest,

although I hate him,

the love and longing he's had for you all these years is genuine.

The love of a young man is the most passionate and unforgettable.

Somehow, I'm

a little envious of him.

I know.

That's why the more heartless I am to him now,

the better I am to him.

We still have to travel tomorrow.

Sleep early.

What I mean is,

I'll sleep in my room, and you go back to yours.

Weren't you waiting for me here just now?

I...

I'm back now. You can go back to sleep.

Go to bed early.

So, Chief Ning also has times when he speaks incoherently

and breaks out in a cold sweat?

Breaks out in a cold sweat? Yes.

I took the Panacea Pill

and lost all my internal strength within seven days.

When I was scaring Li Tong Guang just now, I was sweating all the time.

It's true.

But from now on, with me around,

regardless of whether you have martial arts or not,

as long as I want to protect you, I can definitely do it.

Then I'll entrust myself to you.

Miss Ru Yi,

please be kind to me.

No problem.

It's so dark and windy outside, and there's no one else here.

Why don't we...

No, my injuries haven't healed yet.

Wait until I get better...

I'm teasing you.

(Junzhou - Bianzhou)

Emperor An has always been quite ambitious.

According to the information from Six Realms Hall and Jinsha House,

after the war between An and Wu, he's even more determined to conquer Chu.

After arriving in An, when you enter the palace to see Emperor An,

if he doesn't allow you to bring any guards, what will you do?

The first thing you need to do is meet His Majesty

and confirm his safety.
