Nine-Part Rhyme by Ye Xuan Qing

♫ Time is like a shuttle which just passed by but comes back right away ♫

♫ Feeling is like silk that we're unaware of how entangled it has become ♫

♫ Weave a piece of glamorous ornamentation ♫

♫ With both of our deep loves ♫

♫ It's hard to entrust this love-sickness to someone ♫

♫ I'm willing to become that extremely hopeful bluestone ♫

♫ With your name seal carved into my heart ♫

♫ Turn back to be a butterfly inside a sealed cocoon to weave spring silk ♫

♫ Which cannot be cut but is mingled forever and ever ♫

The Eternal Love

Episode 19

Kneel down, son.

I wonder, what have I done wrong?

What have you done wrong?

Let me ask you.

Did the Queen Dowager try to poison the 8th Princess Consort because of you?

Did you plot the whole thing?

You are intelligent, King Father. Indeed, it was me.

You bastard!

You don't need to be angry, King Father.

You forced me to do this.

You cannot blame me.

I think you should give the throne to me soon.

Perhaps, we can still maintain the affection between us.

You bastard! Arrest him!

You are very daring. You did this while I was away at the villa?

It's not just the villa.

At this time, my people are in control of the entire palace!

Cheng Cheng!

Cheng Cheng!

I'm sorry, I was wrong!

Look, aren't I okay now?

You're okay? Do you treat your life as child's play?

Did you even think about my feelings?

You can be so cruel as to leave me all alone?

If today, I came one step too late...

Cheng Cheng! Let me explain!

The Queen Dowager... she said I must die to save you!

You are my husband. You are my only love!

How could I watch you die?

If you died, how could I live on?

♫ Exhaust all the possible harmful words to speak ♫

♫ without ever thinking about whether they can be taken back or not ♫

♫ After speaking them, I actually feel the sense of loss more ♫

♫ and also sadder ♫

♫ Why cause such trouble? ♫

♫ I ask myself whether I'm able to let go or not ♫

♫ Let go or not that all the love becomes hate in a flash ♫

♫ Whom exactly are my tears for? ♫

♫ As for who wins and who loses, ♫

♫ who really cares? ♫

From now on, don't think about leaving my side anymore.

Remember.

In this life and into eternity, if you are alive, I am alive.

If you die, I die.

I want to be together with you forever.

Until the end of time, we'll never be separated.

Cheng Cheng... are you okay?

- The first king, perhaps he... - Don't worry about me.

How could I leave you all alone and die first?

Cheng Cheng!

Don't be afraid, I'm here.

Who sent you here? You dare to attack a prince?

Where are you going, 8th Brother?

Mo Yi Huai! You dare to rebel?

Where is King Father?

You can't even save yourself and you're worrying about King Father?

You are so filial, 8th Brother.

Don't worry. I have someone watching King Father.

You'd do better to retreat and let King Father go right now!

Then, you'd still have a path to turn back to. Or else, I won't be kind to you!

You won't be kind to me?

Then we'll have to see if you have that capability!

Cheng Cheng!

Let go of Tan'er!

Let go of Tan'er! I'll go with you!

No one will be able to leave here!

Tan'er!

Hurry and go!

Alright. Thankfully, this time,

you didn't injure your organs.

You'll be fine with a few days of rest.

Tan'er is still in Mo Yi Huai's hands.

I must go save her!

Wait! I told you long ago that you can't rush.

We have the Soul Suppressing Orb right now.

Mo Yi Huai wouldn't hurt that girl easily.

If you rashly try to save her,

you'll be caught and fail to save her too.

And most likely, you will lose the best timing to save her.

You really are quite stupid.

Also, Mo Yi Huai is now possessed by a

evil source of power.

His fighting skills were extraordinary, even I couldn't defeat him.

Otherwise, I would've saved that idiot!

But I can't wait any longer.

Tan'er is my woman, how can I not be worried!

Your Highness. The Crown Prince has surrounded the manor. They are within 3 miles of the manor!

The Crown Prince has taken over the palace.

I'm sure that the city guards have already been controlled by him.

Other than the army at my manor, we have no other soldiers that we can use.

Prince, we can mobilize the army at the northern border.

They are close by and loyal to you.

They are brave and skilled in fighting. Dealing with a rebel army like this, they are more than enough.

Mo Yi Huai probably already thought of that.

A few days ago, a message from the border came

saying that someone within the city has collaborated with the enemies outside.

It probably was Mo Yi Huai.

If we mobilize the army now, the borders will be in danger.

Yu Hao, how many men do we have in the manor right now?

- Around 500. - Is there any other army that can be dispatched?

There is a capital army brigade on the western side of the city that we can use.

How long will it take to bring them over here?

If they set out now, they can arrive before the rebels do.

Prince, if we set up the defense carefully, it will be hard for them to charge in here.

No, we must take the initiative.

If they want to conquer this prince's manor,

they surely will pass by Vermilion Bird Alley.

Let us set up there and surround them.

I will take 500 soldiers and fight with them head on.

You will go and transfer the other soldiers.

Secretly sneak behind them. Once I give the signal,

let us attack from the front and the rear, and take them down at once!

Yes!

Very good. This strategy of preparing to attack on one path but secretly advancing on another is really good.

Once the rebel army gets lured and cornered,

they will become like birds within a cage and won't be able to fly away.

I hope so. It's just, to save King Father,

we need reinforcements.

Really so boring here. I'll just go out and have a walk.

Senior!

My god. Where am I?

Just what did I do wrong

that the heavens have to punish me like this?

Earlier, I almost died.

And now, I've become a prisoner.

I even ran into a rebellion to steal the throne!

Within a few months,

I was involved in everything that could happen in history!

On the good side, I can go back and brag about it.

On the bad side, I might die!

I wonder how Cheng Cheng is doing.

Stop!

Yes, sir.

Stop fighting in vain, 8th Prince!

Surrender early instead of having your brothers die in vain!

An army like you who rebelled

just due to a lure of benefits

have no firm and unyielding bones. (cowards)

Five hundred of my people are enough!

Cut the crap! Brothers!

Attack!

Kill!

Kill!

Aim for the rebels!

Shoot!

Tell me. Where is the Soul Suppressing Orb?

How would I know? I don't have it.

You're asking the wrong person.

Qu Zhao Ying clearly gave it to you.

Why wouldn't you know?

Then look! Look! Where do I have it?

To you, it's a treasure, but I don't care!

Don't make things hard on yourself!

If you don't give me the Soul Suppressing Orb, I'll kill you right now!

What do I do, what do I do? This bastard is willing to do anything!

That's right! I'll have Qu Tan'er come out. They were in love for so long, Mo Yi Huai wouldn't ignore an old flame, right?

Um... yesterday, a thief broke into the manor!

So, all of my jewelry, including the Soul Suppressing Orb, was stolen!

Even if I wanted to give it to you, I couldn't!

Qu Tan'er, hurry and show up! Your cruel ex-boyfriend wants to kill me!

You can't endure to see a beautiful young woman like me tragically dying here, right?

Hurry and appear!

If you still won't tell the truth, don't blame me for not being kind!

Calm down. I'm a weak girl. I can't escape.

Let go first, let go first!

Qu Tan'er won't appear? The only thing I can do now is to drag out time

and cotton up to him. And also,

Mo Yi Huai doesn't know Qu Tan'er and I use the same body.

I'll pretend to be Qu Tan'er and use a beauty trap.

It's good that I was nosy around Jing Xin.

Big Brother Yi Huai. Actually, I never forgot about you.

You've always been in my heart.

Big Brother, I'm going to have little monkeys with you!

We'll have lots of little monkeys!

That means having kids!

As a family, we'll read and play together!

Live a blissful fairy-like

married couple life.

Brother Yu Huai, do you still remember our love oath?

I once rammed my head into the wall to declare my love for you.

I was unconscious for three days and almost didn't wake up!

Do you still remember all that?

8th Princess Consort really showed me much appreciation.

You repeatedly seduced other men.

Aren't you afraid 8th Brother will be angry when he finds out?

My god, what is going on? I've done so much, but he's totally unaffected!

This bastard really has a heart of steel!

Have I still not expressed enough deep feelings?

I'm about to die! - Hurry and hand over the Soul Suppressing Orb!

- Elder, keep close to me. - Here, it's here, right?

Don't get lost.

How did you know there was a secret passageway here?

It's quite well made!

When the dynasty was just being established, just to fight the external enemies, he created this tunnel.

When I was a child, I often came here to play.

Thinking about it now, he seemed to know everything.

That Cold Face Mo, he always hid himself away.

Cold Face Mo?

Hey, lad, I checked it out earlier and noticed that there was a place that was heavily guarded.

That must be where the King is being held.

I don't think you can save him alone.

That's right. I have too small a force so I cannot forcefully break in.

Senior! To the left is the inner chambers.

To the right is the garden. Let's split up.

Okay. Um, I'll go to the right.

How about this? You go save her and I'll go find those two bastards.

I'll see what they are up to. Wait for my good news.

- Be careful, Senior! - Okay!

It turns out, Big Brother Yi Huai has already gone crazy.

What should I do? I must hurry and wake him up.

Big Brother Yi Huai.

What tricks are you going to play now?

When I was seven,

it was the first time we met.

Mother secretly gave me a piece of my favorite water chestnut cake.

Big Sister Pan'er stole it away.

She pushed me onto the ground too. I cried furiously.

It was you.

You held me and comforted me. Once,

I accidentally spilled hot tea onto your hand.

Madam and Father rushed over to yell at me.

You... vehemently defended me. Starting from that moment,

I fell in love with you. When I was 15 years old,

you kissed me for the first time.

It was at that time, that my heart decided

that you would be my only man in this lifetime.

I thought, that in the future we could

be together forever and grow old together.

I never imagined that the King would refuse our marriage.

And he bestowed Big Sister Pan'er to you too!

I will only marry Qu Tan'er!

If you dare to refuse, I will execute Qu Tan'er!

The day you got married,

my heart was like death ashes.

I ran my head into the wall.

I thought that since I cannot be with you forever,

then I,

had no reason to keep living on.

♫ Could it be that I need to learn to let go ♫

♫ And lower myself into the dirt ♫

♫ Because I love you so much? ♫

♫ But love has become a sharp double-edged sword ♫

♫ Only understanding each other fully can allow the blood to show in one slice ♫

♫ After speaking them, I actually feel the sense of loss more ♫

♫ Who really cares? ♫

♫ We all hurt anyway ♫

Big Brother Yi Huai!

Tan'er! Tan'er!

It's me.

Did your heart ever change?

If you won't let me go, then I won't let you go.

It's my fault. I don't want any stupid throne anymore.

I just want to be together with you forever!

I have no time to play with you! Hurry and hand over the Soul Suppressing Orb!

- Xiao Tan! - Tan'er!

♫ I heard the ocean's sound, it's very gentle ♫

♫ The confusion hidden in my memories became clear ♫

♫ How come all the unhappiness were given to me? ♫

♫ Getting blown by the wind alone ♫

Xiao Tan, when we were separated, the distance was farther than the distance to Peng Lai.

Now we finally meet, yet my heart is already in disarray.

Tears already drench my silk clothes. I have thought about you thousands of times.

I only hope that you appreciate your love, unlike me,

shedding tears of sorrows and my lonely heart scattering.

♫ Wind-like me got exiled to the end of the world ♫

♫ The dream that can't be held, just let it disperse ♫

Tan'er!

♫ A wild arrogant self is actually the character that you were deeply hiding. ♫

♫ Let me flee your limitless control ♫

Tan'er! Hurry and wake up! You promised me, you're not allowed to leave me!

You promised me!

Cheng Cheng! Cheng Cheng!

Tan'er... Tan'er, she...

You devil!

It was him! He killed Tan'er!

He is no longer the original Mo Yi Huai.

He's being controlled by the demons in his heart.

He doesn't remember who Qu Tan'er is anymore.

My patience is limited.

I have no time to watch you two cry.

Be smart and hand over the Soul Suppressing Orb!

Or else, this place will be your grave!

If you dare to take one more step forward,

I will kill her right away.

Mo Lian Cheng. If you don't want this woman to die,

then bring the Soul Suppressing Orb to me immediately. If you're too late,

then just wait to collect this woman's corpse!

Tan'er! Wait for me!

Wait for me!

Are you sure that Mo Lian Cheng will definitely come?

Don't worry. Mo Lian Cheng deeply loves that woman.

Everyone knows that.

You better be completely sure. If this fails again,

it'll be hard to explain to Master.

With me here, don't even think of succeeding!

Liu Qianshui, you ruined our plan last time!

You still dare to come today?

I wasn't done playing with you the other day.

Do you dare to continue playing with me today?

I'm going to flay his skin today!

After him!

Crown Prince, the 8th Prince requests an audience with you!

Very good. He's come just in time.

I will not only obtain the Soul Suppressing Orb today.

I will also get rid of two things I hate!

Tan'er! Are you okay?

Cheng Cheng, I'm okay.

Royal Brother! I've brought the orb here. Stop Tan'er's bleeding first!

Give me the Soul Suppressing Orb first.

Stop Tan'er's bleeding first! If anything happens to Tan'er,

I'll destroy this right now!

A magic seal is how they're controlling Mo Yi Huai.

As long as we destroy the seal,

Mo Yi Huai will naturally wake up.

Let's split up.

I'll look for the two soul hunters

and you find a way to destroy the magic seal.

You will take the Soul Suppressing Orb to see Mo Yi Huai.

You must drag out time. You cannot let him get the orb easily.

Or else, you and that girl will very likely die.

Stop dragging out time!

Brother Mo, if you stop now and let Royal Father go, there is still a chance to turn things around.

Or else, no one will be able to save you!

Shut up! You don't have a right to advise me!

Hurry and hand over the Soul Suppressing Orb!

Stop!

You still want your lover to suffer?

Liu Qianshui, let's see where you'll run!

You ruined our plan the other day, I'll have your head today!

Don't be afraid. I just want to take a sip of wine!

You can have my head if you want.

But, it'll depend on if you two have the ability to take it.

Come!

Take out the Soul Suppressing Orb!

I really don't know how to open it.

Play it.

Play it!
