Xiangxiang

Behave, Xiangxiang

Are you Lady Ge?

Who are you?

We are the friends of Ge Qi.

Little girl,

what's your name?

Her name is...

My name is Ge Xiangxiang.

Girls are good.

Girls are loving to their parents.

Why are you here?

Where is Ge Qi?

Why hasn't him come back?

Ge Qi was killed by the Wei Amry

in order to protect Hongchuan City.

These are the death benefits

given to you by Prince Yan Xun.

Ge Qi wanted me to tell you

that he wasn't a traitor.

He wanted to return home with dignity.

I knew he wasn't.

I knew it.

I knew he wasn't.

- Xiangxiang. - Mom.

My Xiangxiang.

Don't worry about us.

Now the city is surrounded.

Food is limited.

Leave these

to the soldiers.

They will have more strengths to fight with the enemies

when they have full stomaches.

Since people in the Hongchuan City

have accepted you,

we would not let them down.

He is gone.

Do you like me?

I...

do not.

You do!

I don't.

Am I not pretty?

You are pretty!

I like you.

Master.

Ping'an.

Master, you finally wake up.

Hong long did I sleep?

You slept for a whole day.

We were so worried.

How is the war?

Don't worry.

His Highness got here in time.

The Wei Army was defeated and withdrawed.

Now His Highness is dealing with

the remaining enemies.

How are those injured soldiers?

They are gathered

on the camp.

All doctors in the city come to treat them.

Tell them

to treat injured soldiers

according to

how badly they are injured.

Be sure to keep their lives

as many as possible.

Don't worry, Your Highness.

I will convey your order to them.

Also,

those dead soldiers...

Those who were clamed

were sent home.

Those who didn't have families

were all buried according to the etiquette.

Any news about Master Yuwen?

Sorry,

Master Yuwen was gone

after Yan Xun's rebel army withdrawed.

We didn't know whether he was tracking the rebels.

Don't let it out.

Or it will undermine the morale of the army.

Yes.

The Yuwen Yue I know

is not a reckless person.

Even if he gets held up,

he will come back in time.

How are your injuries?

Thank you for caring about me.

My wounds have been healed.

That's good.

Don't let this happen again.

Do you think I don't know

what you are thinking?

Keep it in mind that

you and Xing'er

are on different sides.

I heard that Yuwen Yue got hurt.

I come to visit him.

Thank Your Highness for caring about me.

I am fine.

Your Highness, I don't know you will come.

Please forgive my rudeness.

Master Yuwen, don't be overly courteous.

I heard that

Your Highness has been dealing with postwar matters.

Although the rebels in Yanbei should be killed.

Now, they are swollen with arrogance

and they have strong forces.

With the war in stalemate,

and the threat of the Liang State,

we are attacked front and rear.

This is not an easy war.

This war will make both sides losers.

The Liang State's intention must be

taking advantage of this war.

The victims suffered most from the war

will be those innocent people.

The land is abandoned.

Wives wait for their husbands only to get the news of their deaths.

The babies in craddle

have lost their fathers.

I really don't want to

see such scenes.

You must be

feeling the same thing.

Father is determined to kill Yan Xun.

Yan Xun wants to revenge.

This is a Gordian knot.

I can not do what I want to do.

Man proposes and God disposes.

You will find a way out

as along as you want to benefit the people.

(Sound of coughing)

Master,

the weather turns cool, be careful not to catch a cold.

Your...

Master.

Master.

His Highness comes.

Ping'an.

Go to bed.

I will go to bed, too.

Yes.

Your Highness.

How is Chu?

Is she feeling better?

Your Highness,

Master just took medicine.

She is resting now.

How about supper?

She just ate some porridge.

Her appetite was not good.

Check the kitchen later.

I have prepared some

sweet potato cake for her.

When it's done,

take some to her.

Yes, Your Highness.

Your Highness, you have been

fiddling with this jade recently.

What is it? Is it very precious?

Not something precious.

Jing,

is it pretty?

Your Highness, I am a vulgar man.

I don't understand this kind of thing.

But it does

look pretty.

I think it's pretty.

And I want to polish it,

making it more smooth,

and give it to Chu.

Your Highness,

you treat Miss Chu really well.

Exquisite as this jade is,

it is kind of small.

You should give her a bigger one.

That's more presentable.

My father was an expert in manual dexterity when he was alive.

Although he always had swords in his hands,

he could also use them to make wine,

and make silverware and fine jade.

I left home early,

learning nothing from him.

I make this neither fish nor fowl thing.

Your Highness, don't say that,

and don't think so.

You see, you and Miss Chu

have experienced a lot of things.

At that time

when you had nothing,

Miss Chu never

abandoned you.

It means that

she loves you.

Now, she is just being grouchy,

and unhappy.

Your Highness, it will do if sweeten her.

Also, I think that

it's high time that you two get married.

Marrige is suitable for your age.

Jing.

Look at the Hongchuan City outside the windows.

Well, Your Highness.

What can I see

with no light on?

Yes.

There is a whole scene of desolation in Yanbei.

Everything needs to be rebuilt.

I, Yan Xun,

is just a rebel

content with a small place.

If I marry Chu now,

she will be the wife of a rebel.

I want to give her

the best of everything.

I need to wait.

I am just worried

whether she can heal from her injuries completely.

Your Highness, don't worry about it.

With me around.

I can assure you,

I will cook

whatever she wants for her.

The better she eats,

the sooner she will recover.

You are the general who is leading the troops

in the war now.

Do you still think that you were the cooker

in the Oriole Courtyard?

Your highness. Please don't say that.

You and Miss Chu

are both my benefactors.

I would like to cook meal for you

for my whole life.

I'm your cooker.

Chu.

Miss Yu.

I heard that you have got injured,

so I just come to visit you.

Just come in.

Chu.

Thank you.

You... you are...

If it weren't you,

Hong Chuan might not be able to wait for

the reinforcements of his highness.

Actually, I'm the one who should thank you.

If you didn't send the message to YanXun,

I'm afraid

that I would have already been

the ghost of Yanbei.

I just did my job.

Before his highness leaving Hong Chuan,

he had already arranged me to protect you.

How is your injury?

It's almost recovered.

That's great.

Did his highness

explain something to you?

I had healed my wounds before this.

So I haven't seen him yet.

Chu.

You and his highness have a profound relationship.

You and he live or die together.

I don't want to judge it.

But I just want you to know

the original idea of his highness

will not put you

into any tight spot.

He arranged me to take you to the city of Lan,

but it's my fault to fail it.

Miss Yu, you don't need to say this.

I understand it.

No matter how,

it's good that Yanbei is safe and sound.

Either for Yanbei or Wei State,

the peace is just for the moment.

The military competition remains deadlocked.

If it goes like this,

it will only add casualties in vain.

Since you have known what my choice is,

then I believe that just like me,

you don't want to plunge the people into misery and suffering

but want the peace.

Miss Yu.

I have got bored

in the room for these days.

Please go for a walk with me.

Okay.

But,

you need to get prepared.

In the battle of Hong Chuan,

we have lost 80 hundred soldiers.

There are countless women

who became the widows

and countless kids who became the orphans.

At the thought of this,

I just can't sleep at night

and eat at day.

I don't know

what I could do.

This is war.

The achievement of a general cost many lives.

The people who are suffering are the ordinary persons.

We have already done what we could.

Chu.

I know you are very smart,

so I didn't mean to

hide it from you.

In the battle of Hong Chuan,

I did make some decision

based on

my own consideration.

What you did was right.

Because of your mediating,

Yanxun could come back to Hong Chuan.

Actually, I just took a risk on it.

I really hoped that his highness

would come back to Hong Chuan

for you.

Whose kid is that one?

I heard from the soldiers

that his mother had been dead for a long time,

and then he was raised by his father

and some older brothers.

But just couple of days ago,

all of them died in the battle.

The soldiers feel compassion on him,

so he is kept in the camp

and given some food.

It's not a long-term plan to stay at the camp.

Is there any place where he could be settled down?

It's not because we didn't want to let him be settled,

but he refused to leave.

He said he want to stay

to take revenge for his family.

His Royal Highness Xiang, here you come.

I heard that my father has grounded you at home,

so I pushed all the official business away

to come here to visit you.

I didn't expect that you are at leisure like this.

I guess my visiting

is kind of unnecessary.

His Majesty blamed me for leaving the military

without notice.

And he questioned closely where I had been.

The most important one is

before Wei Shuye leaving,

he lodged a complaint against me

with his Majesty on what I did in Xian Yang

Yeah. I heard he has been back.

Yes.

He came home with Chun'er.

My father flied into fury

and put Chun'er in jail.

And Wei Shuye has been deprived of

some right as well

and locked up at home.

The princess Chun'er made a big mistake.

I'm afraid that she couldn't get away from it.

I don't know how about

Imperial concubine Wei

and Yuan Song.

Imperial concubine Wei isn't my birth mother,

but she has raised me up.

Chun'er is just like

my own little sister.

I hope I would say something good about her

in front my father at that time

to exempt Chun'er from capital punishment.

Thank you.

I don't deserve it. I don't deserve it.

Imperial concubine, thirteenth prince.

Please.

Please.

Chun'er.

You had a rough time.

Why are you here?

We come to see you.

To see me?

To see the joke of me?

To see how miserable I am?

To see how failure I have?

Chun'er.

How could you say something like this?

It's your brother.

It's your brother to come to see you.

Chun'er. Listen to me

and admit your mistake to your father.

What mistake did I make?

Why do I need to admit my mistake?

You stole the commander's tally privately

and led the troop go on an expedition to Yanbei.

Both of them are death offense.

Death?

I should die long time ago.

All right, Chun'er.

Stop feel wronged and act rashly.

I didn't feel wronged and act rashly.

I said that I should die long time ago.

I should die outside of Hong Chuan,

die in Xian Yang.

I should die

at the shamed night.

I will never let you die.

I will save you.

Save me?

Why would you save me?

Didn't you feel be shamed enough?

I

am the most honorable princess of the Wei State.

The bridegroom betrayed

at the wedding day.

But I still chose to try my best to follow him

without knowing what shame is

and was ravaged, trampled and tortured

by his soldiers.

I'm a slut right now.

Why should I live?

- It's engough. - I...

Stop talking.

You are not slut.

You are my daughter.

You are the princess of the Wei State.

You are innocent, lively, kindly and lovely

since childhood.

Kindly?

Lovely?

(Sound of laughting)

Kindly? Lovely?

But your daughter of at that time

has been dead.

Your daughter of at that time

has been dead.

Chun'er.

Chun'er.

This is the Safety Fu

I asked for you.

You just take it to

make you safe and sound.

It's my fault.

I let you suffer a lot.

But, Chun'er,

People will

encounter difficulties in the whole life.

You just have to grit your teeth and bear it,

and then everything will be fine.

You believe me, okay?

Mother.

Could you just tell me,

tell your daughter

the rose that had been

stamped into the mud

will be able to go back to

the noble branch?

As it is now, you don't need to say anything.

I just reaped the fruits of my own actions.

I'm willing to die.

Chun'er.

I will definitely save you.

Chun'er.

I'm leaving.

But it's impossible

for people to never grow up.

I can't protect you for the whole life.

I hope you will grow up

through all this.

Chun'er.

Just take a rest.

I'm leaving too.
