Episode Thirty-seven

You want me here so late

What happened?

I just want to see you

A'chu

About the wedding between me and the princess...

I know

The majesty is ready to kill

You know?

I just never thought

he will use his own daughter

as the bait

For him

only he himself is valuable

Everyone else can be sacrificed

Will you blame me?

How could I?

The situation now

forced us to follow instead of resisting

I am just a little bit sympathy about the princess

She may be naughty

Her love for you is sincere

How sad will she be

after the wedding?

We can't

care about that at this time

She may be heartbroken,

More likely, we will lost

our lives

Man proposes, God deposes

If the God

stop us again this time,

what should we do?

I don't believe in the fate

A'chu

I will take you back to Yan

The distance between Wei and Yan is huge

We need to pass across states and towns

Hard to hide

Since I was permitted to

be free

in Chang'an

Large number of troops guarded outside the city

Once we escape

without permission

we will be found

in less than fifteen minutes

Most importantly,

we have no idea

how the guards distribute

If we rush out by force,

chances are we met them right to their face

So the first thing we should do

is to get all the maps of distribution of

all the camps 100 miles

around the city

But the hardest for us now is that

the majesty announced my wedding in sudden,

which disturbs our original plan

We need to make a detailed counter plan

Now the only choice for us is to

get out the city by force

But that is not a good way for us

Don't worry

We'll figure it out

A'chu

There is something that

I never told you before

Thank you

Thank you for keeping me accompany in the hell

for such a long time

Without you,

I may have died

in the prison

three years ago

All you have done for me

will be compensated

with my whole life

When we are back to hometown

do not leave me, okay?

No need to say these

between you and I

Yan Xun

Yan is my hometown

Sister Luo He

I asked to see Chu Qiao

She is grown-up,

beautiful,

and outstanding,

like you in the past

But she seems to forget

everything in the past

She forgot who she is,

or who I am

Sister Luo He

I swear to you

If she keeps forgetting

about her birth,

do not expose my past,

do not hurt my child

I will protect

with my life

Your spirit in the heaven

Please bless A'chu

Bless me as well

Prince

The majesty of Wei is experienced and astute

He wants to make use of the wedding

between you and the princess

Our plan to disguise ourselves

escaping during the chaos

can only be stopped

Now

we have only one choice

Attack Chang'an by force

But we may be not able to

control the gate of the city

The stakes are too high

Prince, letter

Wait

This is not our carrier pigeon

Prince

Prince, from whom?

It says it comes from your old friend

Invites us to meet four hours later

at the Zui Xian restaurant in the south of the city

My old friend?

Hiding his identity

It may be a trap

If they want me dead

they can just wait

Why bother doing this?

Let's go and see him

Let's go

Please come in, both guests

Princecess, they are here

I shall leave first

Why you?

Zhong Yu

We have known each other for a long time.

There's no need to

use force when you see me.

Who is she?

The spy of Liang State.

During the time when you were trapped in Jiuyou Platform,

they had been hiding in Chang'an City.

I fought with them for many times.

They might have played a part

in the incidence at that time.

Prince Yan, I've long been looking forward to meeting you.

The spy of Liang State,

has the nerve to

make an appointment with me in state.

I don't have the nerve to meet other people.

However, Prince Yan,

even if I tell you that

I am going to assassin the emperor of Wei State,

most probably you won't denounce me.

Maybe I will.

Maybe I can denounce you

in exchange of the emperor of Wei State's trust.

I am not that important

to contribute to the reconciliation

between you and the emperor.

Your Highness, you are a clever man.

There's no need

to beat about the bush.

What do you want

by inviting me here?

Cooperation.

You and me?

Yes.

The end of three years is coming.

We both know that

it's nearly impossible for you

to leave Chang'an

after the emperor grants you and the Princess' marriage.

If you want to storm Chang'an

and return to Yanbei,

the key will be

breaking through the city gate.

And my influence

has infiltrate into the soldiers

guarding the East Gate.

I think this may

help you out.

Don't believe her.

At the time of Jiuyou Platform

and afterwards in Celestial Prison,

it was she who stopped me from saving you.

Times have changed.

If you had died then,

Yanbei would have been anarchic and disunited,

big households would have scrambled for it.

The emperor of Wei State would not have the power to repress them,

which would naturally have made Wei State fall apart.

The difficulty of Wei State

would be a good news to our Liang State.

Therefore, I would definitely

stop you from saving him.

Your Highness,

do you remember that

one of my men

greeted you

in Celestial Prison?

However, he failed.

But right now,

the situation is different.

The emperor of Wei State has intervened Yanbei

for three years by the name of you.

During these years,

he has sent

many skeleton staff to Yanbei.

So, all over the world,

nobody

can take Yanbei

from the emperor easily

except for you.

So, Your Highness,

helping you is

another way to help us Liang State.

It is in the interests of us.

So?

So, Your Highness,

I am the only ally

whom you can trust

and the only person

whom you can rely on

in Chang'an City.

Your Highness, the emperor of Wei State is shameless.

And many people in court

see you as a

thorn in the flesh.

So I hope that you will

consider my advice thoroughly.

How do you want to cooperate?

Do you agree?

You have sufficient reasons.

There is no permanent enemy,

only permanent interest.

You are really wise, Your Highness.

Now I am

more confident

in our cooperation.

Princess.

How's it going?

Did Brother Yan Xun say anything?

How come that

not a single word is changed?

Doesn't he want to

invite someone?

Prince Yan Xun

never looked at it at all.

He may be too busy.

How can he be busy?

Princess.

Must you

marry Prince Yan Xun?

I don't understand.

What good is

Prince Yan Xun?

I feel that he has changed.

Now I don't know

what he thinks

when he looks at you.

In addition,

obviously he likes his maid.

Princess, with your status

and beauty,

you can find a perfect husband.

Why do you cling to him?

Caiwei,

you don't understand.

When you like someone,

you want to see him every day.

When you see him,

you will be very happy.

You want to be with him.

That will bring you

happiness.

Furthermore,

men are always

into several women.

Like my father,

he has hundreds of concubines,

some of whom he barely knows.

If he

really likes her,

he can put her in his palace

in the future.

Furthermore,

Brother Yan Xun

and I were

brought up together.

He must

have some feelings for me.

After we get married

and stay with each other for a long time,

he will certainly accept me.

What?

Yan Xun is going to marry.

It makes you so heart-broken that

you can't even aim at your target.

You want to leave

before your superior finishs speaking.

Don't you think you are rude?

What are you trying to say?

Yan Xun is going to marry.

Are you happy?

Are you happy?

I'm really happy.

Lunatic.

You have accompanied him

for many years.

You must be sad.

I am not as bored as you.

What? Are you angry?

Yuwen Yue, you are smart.

I don't believe that

you don't know what this wedding means.

Your teasing words

which you say standing there

make no difference

with what you did

on Jiuyou Platform at that time.

Since you know it,

why don't you escape?

Escape?

To where?

Can we escape successfully?

I don't believe that

you will await your doom.

Tell me. What are you going to do?

You should ask

your emperor

about what he is up to.

Do you know that

you are getting closer to death

every day?

The Wei State must ambush you along the way.

If you value your life,

you should steer clear of Yanbei

and stay out of trouble.

I won't stop you from escaping.

But if you dare to disturb Chang'an,

you will be doomed.

Yuwen Yue,

you keep out of the affair,

or you help us.

None of your stuff!

Anyhow you have your family

and official title.

I'm afraid you can't help us.

I don't want to be your enemy.

You are already.

If you act recklessly,

I won't turn a blind eye.

As we are already enemies,

there's no need for you to get involved with me.

If you block the way

for me and Yan Xun,

I don't know what I will do.

Alright. Take them in.

Yes.

You can leave.

The Imperial Concubine arrives!

Mother.

You can all leave.

Yes.

Mother, what brings you here?

My daughter is going to marry,

and I am the last one to know.

What? Can't I come here to see you?

I don't mean that.

You unfilial child.

How dare you

make this kind of decision

behind me.

Do you still

see me as your mother?

I just don't want to marry

the prince of Liang State.

You can tell me

if you don't want to marry him.

How can you go to your father

and beg him to marry you to Yan Xun?

How can I have

such a silly daughter like you?

What's wrong about marrying Yan Xun?

I just want to marry him.

Slap me!

You can slap me to death!

If I am dead,

I don't need to marry anyone.

Mother.

Please allow me to marry

Brother Yan Xun.

I have always liked him since I was young.

You know that.

What a silly girl.

There is feud

between you.

Do you forget the scene

on Jiuyou Platform three years ago?

I don't forget.

How can I forget?

I feel guilty

about it.

I could do nothing at that time.

I could do nothing to help him.

But I grow up now.

I can protect him.

If he becomes my husband,

no one

can hurt him,

including Father.

He will be safe.

How can you be this naive?

Mother,

Brother Yan Xun

is my dearest.

All my life,

I can never

love anyone

as I have loved him.

Have you ever considered

what Yan Xun thought about?

Doesn't he hate you?

Doesn't he hate your father?

Doesn't he hate the Wei State?

How will your life be like

after you marry him?

You are the daughter of his father's murderer.

How can he love you?

I don't want to think too much.

Even if he dislikes me,

even if he hates me,

I will do anything

to protect him.

I will even

die for him.

Mother,

this is my last request.

Please give me your bless.

Let it be.

Doomed love.

I wish that

you won't regret your decision

in the future.

I will never regret it.

Concubine.

General Huai,

haven't I replied you?

I am busy these days.

I don't have time to meet with you.

That's why

I wait for you here.

Do you have something to say?

It can't be expressed in a few words.

I will tell you

when we go back to Lanfu Palace.

How rude!

Although General Huai

is my elder brother,

anyhow it's inappropriate for you

to frequently go in and out of forbidden palaces.

When I have some spare time another day,

I will ask you to come.

Let's go.

No one is more suitable

to serve him than you.

It should be an important person

whom you ask me to serve.

The emperor.

Are you afraid?

I am an abject girl.

Thanks to Young Master's rescue and cultivation.

The palaces

mean a precious chance

for a young girl.

I won't let you down.

Stand up.

Make sufficient preparations.

After I send you there,

you can only rely on yourself.

Thank you, Young Master.

That bitch.

You have your nose in the air

after I give you to His Majesty.

Qiao Qiao.

See, I bring you flowers.

Do you like them?

I just picked them.

Do you like them?

Smell them. They are fragrant.

Qiao Qiao.

Are you mad at me?

Your Royal Highness,

this is military camp of the Wei State.

I am busy. I don't have time to chat with you.

I am not busy.

I can chat with you.

You just turn me down like this.

Xiao Ce.

You are really

unlikeable.

Really?

I just hear it

for the fist time.

By the way, Qiao Qiao.

I bring you another gift.

As a girl, you are always

exposed to the weather

in military camp.

You certainly does not

protect your skin well.

I am telling you.

- I bring you... - Stop.

I am telling you.

I will simply tell you what I think

once and for all.

I really dislike you.

I dislike that

you always follow me around

dressed in colorful clothes

like a woman.

I dislike that you always act the fool

and fool others.

I dislike your foxy eyes.

I dislike your honey tongue

your importunate requests

and your desire to stir up trouble.

Talented.

Really good comment.

Do you have more?

Yes.

We had better get along peacefully.

If you peeve me again,

I will beat you up again.

What should I do?

The more you say these words,

the more I like you.

Your Royal Highness.

If you do like me,

you'd better stay away from me.

Careful for my fists.

Qiao Qiao, I haven't finished.

Your Royal Highness. Your Royal Highness.

Your Royal Highness, are you alright?

Qiao Qiao.

Your Royal Highness. Your Royal Highness.

Are you alright?

Come here.

Help His Royal Highness up.

Stand up. Stand up. Stand up.

- Your Royal Highness. - Qiao Qiao.

Are you alright? Do you get hurt?

We'll fan you.

Are you alright?

What happened?

General Yuwen,

His Royal Highness are brought up in the lap of luxury.

He is too frail to stand a gust of wind.

I have no idea that people from your Xiaoqi Camp

dares to offense him like this.

Xiaoqi Camp is an important place.

Your Royal Highness,

please don't come without being invited.

What are you talking about?

Wouldn't you punish

your subordinate

in our justice?

Don't be rude.

It is I who fell down.

It doesn't concern other people.

Qiao Qiao.

I was hurt badly.

Wouldn't you agree to

go out with me?

Why do you always

ask me to accompany you?

Because I like you.

Your Highness,

If you want to take a walk,

I can accompany you.

I just want Qiao Qiao to accompany me.

Qiao Qiao.

There are so many troops outside of the city.

They are all manly men and give off an unbearable stink.

Only you

can make the air pure and fresh.

Only you

can make the scenery beautiful.

Yanxun is worried about the map of

military garrison outside the city.

Maybe, I could take this chance

to detect the military garrison outside.

Okay.

Since the Crown Prince is so kind to invite me,

I will take a walk with you.

Really? Let's go.

Your highness.

Do you have interest in hunting?

Not far ahead,

you will see the Royal hunting ground of Wei State.

How could I do

something so cruel?

I'm different

from your people here.

Your people don't respect

the life at all.

What do you mean?

I have heard

there is a hunting way you've got,

which is called Human Hunting,

and takes the human being as the prey.

It's really too dehumanizing.

Then you could just hunt the animals.

Animals have life as well.

My father respects Buddhist philosophy

and advocates all beings are equal.

You're really so kindhearted.

Of course, I am.

Someone advocates destroying life.

But I advocates creating life.

Creating life?

If I could

create life

with the woman I love,

it will be such a beautiful thing.

Qiao Qiao, would you like to try?

With the excellent bloodline of you and I,

we will create...

It's enough, shut up.

Qiao Qiao, wait for me.

Is the map of deployment

for Yanxun ready?

It has already been prepared.

If Yanxun could get out of the city,

he should thank you a lot.

It's not necessary.

If without me,

he would have not stayed three years at here.

There is no private interest before the nation.

I just hope

he wouldn't disappoint my expectation,

and wouldn't

be get rid of by Wei State too early.

I have heard our Crown Prince

has already been out of the city.

Yes.

Have the persons been sent out?

It's already been prepared.

I really hope after this time

I don't need to

see his face any more.

(Sound of the horse's hoofs)

Your highness.

Before today, I saw you turn over on your steed

with good equestrian skill.

Why did you become so lousy today?

I just have good equestrian skill

with my own horse.

Because that horse

has been raised by me from its childhood,

it can listen to my order at any time.

It's not like this one.

This one is like to

throw me to the ground at any moment.

Why did you

ride your own horse?

Because I want to cooperate you.

Look,

today, you ride a pure black horse

with a little white on its nose tip.

Then I have to pick a pure white horse

with a little black on its nose tip.

You are so funny.

I always think

you are not normal person before this.

It turns out I am right.

You really not normal person.

Yes, I am.

However, my life style

is very integrity.

Under any circumstance,

I always

lead a licentious life

and is a casual and elegant bearing man.

There is poison on the arrow.

Did you do this?

Did I find some guys to kill me?

(Sound of fighting)

Qiao Qiao.

You don't need this to hug me.

Shut up.

Get up.

(Sound of Screaming)

Run.

Qiao Qiao.

There are persons ahead, what should we do?

Go.

What should we do?

Be careful.

Qiao Qiao.

I'm fine.

Let's go.

(Sound of Screaming)

(Sound of Screaming)

They're up there.

Shoot the arrow. Let's flank them.

Jump down.

It's not going to happen.

I will be drowned if I jump down.

(Sound of Screaming)

Your highness.

We have adjusted the plan accordingly.

However, we are short of hands,

there is no chance of winning

to attack the gate by force under any arrangement.

And Xiao Yu of Liang State harbours evil intent

and is hard to be trusted.

The only way we have now

is to use the troop of Xiuli.

I know what you are thinking.

But stop planning use Chu

to control the troop of Xiuli.

Your highness.

Your highness, Miss Chu is in the trouble.

She is at the south of Xiao Guan.

Why did Chu go to Xiao Guan?

Today, Miss Chu went out the city to

detect the new military garrison

in the name of protecting the Crown Prince of Liang State.

Is this true?

It is.

Si Die saw them

fall into an ambush with massive forces in person.

Your highness. You can't do this.

If you go out of city at will,

you will disobey the order of the emperor,

and your life will...

The life or death of Chu

is more important than anything.

You must remember two things.

Firstly, bring Chu off safely.

Secondly,

you can't exposure your identity.

If you are captured by the enemy,

Jing,

you are aware what you should do.

Yes, I am.

Go.

Your highness.

The Crown Prince of Liang State was attacked.

Do you know who did this?

I don't know.

But if the Crown Prince dies,

Chang'an will fall into chaos.

It will do us a world of good.

Since the target is same,

there is no harm for us to help them.

Let alone, if Chu is still

alone with Xiao Ce right now,

I'm afraid she has already done it.

God is helping me.

How could you be so stupid?

Don't you know

it will help you a lot if I am dead?

How could this be so powerful?

Young Master.

The guards of the gate found

that Prince Yanxun went out of city in disguise.

How many persons?

He brought couple of personal guard with him.

According to your order,

we didn't stop him.

Where did he go?

He was spuring on the flying horse

to the south side of Xiao Guan.

Xiao Guan?

Yes.

The Crown Prince of Liang State went out of the city afternoon,

with Coach Chu following him,

to Xiao Guan as well.

Yue Qi, assemble all the guards of Yue.

Remember not to disturb

other officers of Xiaoqi Camp.

Just send people right now

to follow me to the south side of Xiao Guan.

We have to retrieve Yanxun.

Qiao Qiao.

Are you awake, Qiao Qiao?

The stink smell

finally is gone.

The cloth had been soaked

in the water for a while.

It became old and ugly.

You just settle for being covered by it.

Don't move. Don't move.

You are injured.

Don't move.

It is very hurt, isn't it?

Qiao Qiao. Do you think

what we should do now?

Do nothing.

Sit down.

Take a rest.

Qiao Qiao. Do you...

Do you think

who are those people

chased after us just then?

I have no idea.

In my opinion,

from the inside of Liang State,

if I die

the position of the Crown Prince

will be left,

and my older brother

will have the chance to succeed to the throne.

While the one who most wants me to die

in the Chang'an

is your master, Yanxun.

If I die,

Chang'an will fall into chaos.

After this,

the war will break out between Wei State and Liang State.

The emperor the Wei State will have no time

to deal with Yanxun.

By that time,

Yanxun will secure an invincible position.

However,

when I saw you were trying to save me

regardless of danger,

I thought maybe that's not true.

Isn't it?

Shut up.

You'd better shut up.

Don't you be afraid that I would kill you

because of your nonsense

to avoid you being a drag on me?

Qiao Qiao.

The thing I most like about you is

that you are smart and kind.

You really are good woman.

Are you thirsty?

How about I'm finding water

for you to drink?

By the way, are you hungry too?

How about I'm finding some food

for you to eat?

Qiao Qiao, what's wrong with you?

Your wounds are bleeding again.

What should we do?

What should we do?

Kill him.

Now.

I... I...

I... I...

Go.

Okay, let me kill him.

Don't come up.

Don't you hear me?

Qiao Qiao, this place is too dangerous.

Let's go and hide.

Come on, let me help you to get up.

Come on.

Take it slow.

Take it slow.

(Sound of the horse's hoofs)

Yanxun disobeyed the imperial decree

and went to Xiao Guan.

I'm afraid there something happened to Xing'er.

Young Master, going down from here

could save time about half wick of incense.

But the cliff

is kind of dangerous.

There is not a minute to be lost for us.

Slow down.

Sit here, Qiao Qiao.

Come on.

Slow down.

What's matter.

Are the wounds hurting again?

There are some herbs over there.

Please pick some for me.

This one? Okay.

(Sound of suffering)

Qiao Qiao.

You couldn't afford

one more fighting again.

What should we do?

I think...

I think we could

get rid of them together.

How do you think?

First of all,

it's me not us.

Secondly,

there are a dozen of enemies

while I am alone.

Do you think how many enemies I could kill

under this condition?

Don't blame me that I didn't remind you

when there is no way to escape,

I would like to turn you in

to exchange a way out for me.

Then,

then this is the plan, Qiao Qiao.

I will draw the enemies away,

and then you can run away with all your strength.

Is this Okay?

By the way,

this is for you.

I have no martial art.

This is the secret weapon for self-protection

given by my father.

Once you rotate it,

there will be 50 needles flying out

and each one has rank poison.

Whoever touches it will die.

You just keep it well.

It can save your life at the the crucial moment.

Do you suddenly find out

that you fall in love with me?

It's fine, don't be rush.

When we come back to Chang'an,

there will be so many chances for you.

They are coming.

I will draw them away.

Take care.

It will be fine.

I'm right here.
