00:01:45.750 --> 00:01:46.710
General Peng,

00:01:47.110 --> 00:01:48.860
we've been eating meat all night

00:01:49.190 --> 00:01:50.860
while you suffered beatings all night.

00:01:51.220 --> 00:01:52.270
We feel bad

00:01:52.860 --> 00:01:53.860
about it.

00:01:54.940 --> 00:01:55.940
Treason is

00:01:57.700 --> 00:01:59.630
punishable by death.

00:02:00.260 --> 00:02:01.500
Since I committed treason,

00:02:03.070 --> 00:02:04.540
I don't fear death.

00:02:05.820 --> 00:02:07.540
If you want to kill me,

00:02:08.660 --> 00:02:10.590
it's up to you.

00:02:11.470 --> 00:02:12.380
Young Master,

00:02:13.380 --> 00:02:14.780
General Peng's hot oil is ready.

00:02:28.750 --> 00:02:30.700
If you insist on keeping quiet,

00:02:32.630 --> 00:02:33.750
then you can stay silent

00:02:34.910 --> 00:02:36.540
for the rest of your life.

00:02:37.030 --> 00:02:38.030
Ling Buyi.

00:02:40.220 --> 00:02:42.220
Are you mad? You're mad!

00:02:42.220 --> 00:02:43.150
Stop it!

00:02:48.940 --> 00:02:50.220
Ling Buyi, are you mad?

00:02:51.260 --> 00:02:52.980
Peng Kun is a prisoner
of the imperial court.

00:02:53.220 --> 00:02:54.700
You can't interrogate him in private.

00:02:54.910 --> 00:02:56.700
His Majesty entrusted Shouchun to him

00:02:57.470 --> 00:02:58.500
with great expectation.

00:02:58.980 --> 00:03:01.500
But because of his selfish interests,
he plotted a rebellion.

00:03:02.070 --> 00:03:03.310
This is disloyalty.

00:03:03.980 --> 00:03:05.940
Lord Qian'an treated him as his brother.

00:03:05.940 --> 00:03:07.590
So he trusted him and nurtured him.

00:03:07.980 --> 00:03:09.350
Yet, he repays his kindness with evil

00:03:09.470 --> 00:03:10.750
by killing Lord Qian'an.

00:03:11.350 --> 00:03:12.470
This is immoral.

00:03:13.310 --> 00:03:14.780
For someone
who has no morals or loyalty,

00:03:15.590 --> 00:03:17.100
why do you want to defend him?

00:03:17.500 --> 00:03:19.190
You're the one who's mad.

00:03:19.500 --> 00:03:20.700
Every country has its law.

00:03:21.310 --> 00:03:22.750
Even if Peng Kun must die,

00:03:23.430 --> 00:03:25.750
we can only do so
after His Majesty orders it.

00:03:28.070 --> 00:03:28.870
I must take him

00:03:29.260 --> 00:03:30.980
back to the Ministry of Justice.

00:03:32.380 --> 00:03:33.260
General Ling,

00:03:33.540 --> 00:03:35.260
you've been interrogating him
all night in the military camp.

00:03:35.780 --> 00:03:36.910
It's already against the rules.

00:03:38.070 --> 00:03:40.870
I hope you will stop
breaking the law on purpose

00:03:41.310 --> 00:03:42.750
and put me tight spot,

00:03:42.980 --> 00:03:44.780
and embarrass His Majesty.

00:03:45.660 --> 00:03:46.870
What if

00:03:48.350 --> 00:03:50.310
I insist on interrogating him?

00:03:51.590 --> 00:03:52.750
Then I ask you

00:03:53.100 --> 00:03:56.030
to walk over my dead body.

00:03:59.780 --> 00:04:01.820
I didn't expect you to be someone

00:04:02.670 --> 00:04:05.310
who behaves in a fit and proper way.

00:04:10.790 --> 00:04:12.070
I don't care

00:04:12.340 --> 00:04:13.430
about Peng Kun's life.

00:04:13.990 --> 00:04:15.750
But if you keep behaving recklessly,

00:04:16.340 --> 00:04:17.900
you're bound to get into trouble.

00:04:19.870 --> 00:04:21.750
You and Cheng Shaoshang
will be married soon.

00:04:22.380 --> 00:04:23.310
I suggest you

00:04:23.700 --> 00:04:24.940
be prudent in your actions.

00:04:25.550 --> 00:04:27.550
Don't let anyone in the royal court
have something against you.

00:04:32.310 --> 00:04:34.380
If you can only bring her trouble,

00:04:35.020 --> 00:04:36.190
I don't mind

00:04:36.460 --> 00:04:37.940
taking your place.

00:04:48.260 --> 00:04:48.990
Your Majesty,

00:04:48.990 --> 00:04:50.110
Peng Kun's wife

00:04:50.190 --> 00:04:52.020
has complained tearfully
at Changqiu Palace.

00:04:52.380 --> 00:04:54.020
What a pitiful Peng Kun's wife is.

00:04:54.260 --> 00:04:55.630
We don't know for sure
if the baby in her womb is safe.

00:04:55.870 --> 00:04:57.790
It's all Ling Buyi's fault.

00:04:57.790 --> 00:04:58.820
Does the Censorate also want

00:04:59.020 --> 00:05:00.630
to blame General Ling

00:05:00.630 --> 00:05:02.190
for other people's miscarriages?

00:05:02.430 --> 00:05:03.750
The Censorate indeed has
too much time on its hands.

00:05:03.990 --> 00:05:05.140
Hadn't Ling Buyi

00:05:05.310 --> 00:05:06.630
brutally tortured him

00:05:06.630 --> 00:05:07.990
into confessing the crimes,

00:05:08.230 --> 00:05:10.700
would His Majesty be criticized now?

00:05:10.820 --> 00:05:13.140
Are you saying we must be gentle
in executing punishment?

00:05:13.430 --> 00:05:14.940
Official Zuo, do you think

00:05:15.110 --> 00:05:16.630
handling investigations and war are

00:05:16.630 --> 00:05:18.500
just what the imperial counselors
like you?

00:05:18.670 --> 00:05:19.870
Do you think you can
just use your mouths

00:05:20.020 --> 00:05:21.580
to make a traitor confess his crime?

00:05:22.140 --> 00:05:22.990
Third Brother,

00:05:23.380 --> 00:05:24.700
Official Zuo didn't mean it that way.

00:05:26.750 --> 00:05:27.630
Official Zuo,

00:05:27.630 --> 00:05:29.900
Zisheng was also anxious
to convict the traitor.

00:05:30.310 --> 00:05:31.870
I'm afraid there must be
a misunderstanding between you.

00:05:31.870 --> 00:05:33.990
There's a fine line
between right and wrong.

00:05:34.190 --> 00:05:35.670
There will always be a verdict for that.

00:05:35.790 --> 00:05:36.670
Brother,

00:05:36.670 --> 00:05:38.790
you can't blame
the guilty and innocent alike.

00:05:40.310 --> 00:05:42.020
Are you done talking already?

00:05:45.430 --> 00:05:46.460
Cheng Shaoshang,

00:05:47.940 --> 00:05:49.870
you're getting outrageous by the day.

00:05:50.630 --> 00:05:51.430
Your Majesty,

00:05:52.340 --> 00:05:53.310
I'm innocent.

00:05:54.230 --> 00:05:55.260
No matter how confused I am,

00:05:55.260 --> 00:05:56.790
I would never harm a pregnant mother.

00:05:56.940 --> 00:05:57.940
But she kept siding

00:05:57.940 --> 00:05:59.430
with the traitor, Peng Kun,

00:05:59.430 --> 00:06:01.020
and vilifying our Zisheng.

00:06:01.140 --> 00:06:02.230
I just couldn't...

00:06:05.310 --> 00:06:06.380
I couldn't tolerate it anymore.

00:06:06.700 --> 00:06:08.190
So I gagged her with a handkerchief.

00:06:09.230 --> 00:06:10.550
Do you call that a handkerchief?

00:06:10.900 --> 00:06:12.580
You obviously used your sock.

00:06:13.070 --> 00:06:14.580
When did you smell my sock?

00:06:14.580 --> 00:06:15.750
You... Outrageous!

00:06:16.630 --> 00:06:17.900
This is the Chongde Hall.

00:06:18.140 --> 00:06:20.700
Even if Ling Buyi is your fiance,

00:06:20.700 --> 00:06:22.460
you can't humiliate important officials

00:06:22.900 --> 00:06:24.670
of the imperial court by saying so.

00:06:25.820 --> 00:06:26.990
It's not that she can't.

00:06:28.820 --> 00:06:29.990
She doesn't have to

00:06:33.670 --> 00:06:34.790
because her fiancé can

00:06:34.790 --> 00:06:36.580
also insult
the so-called important officials

00:06:37.140 --> 00:06:38.820
of the imperial court himself.

00:06:47.820 --> 00:06:49.630
Official Zuo,
I guess you still need some beatings.

00:06:50.140 --> 00:06:52.260
How dare you trouble my fiancee again?

00:06:53.260 --> 00:06:55.430
Ling Buyi, don't go too far!

00:06:55.430 --> 00:06:57.260
You kept siding with the traitor,
Peng Kun's side.

00:06:57.430 --> 00:06:58.820
You're the one who went too far.

00:07:00.340 --> 00:07:02.140
When did I side with Peng Kun?

00:07:02.670 --> 00:07:03.870
He attempts to usurp the throne

00:07:03.990 --> 00:07:04.940
and go against his superiors.

00:07:05.110 --> 00:07:06.500
We can punish him according to the law.

00:07:06.870 --> 00:07:07.990
But General Ling snatched him

00:07:08.110 --> 00:07:10.580
from the Ministry of Justice
to the Northern Army Prison

00:07:10.700 --> 00:07:12.670
to interrogate and torture him
in private.

00:07:12.820 --> 00:07:13.940
This is against the rules.

00:07:13.940 --> 00:07:16.140
That's because he's not
only involved in treason.

00:07:16.430 --> 00:07:18.230
He's also related to the reason
Gu City was breached.

00:07:29.070 --> 00:07:30.340
What did you find out?

00:07:30.790 --> 00:07:32.550
Peng Kun made a desperate move

00:07:33.070 --> 00:07:34.500
because marquis Yue was captured.

00:07:35.340 --> 00:07:37.340
Peng Kun is aware the secret
of his killing Lord Qian'an

00:07:37.580 --> 00:07:39.580
that led to Gu City being breached
can't be hidden anymore.

00:07:40.020 --> 00:07:41.870
But he was only
a deputy general back then.

00:07:42.140 --> 00:07:43.670
He wouldn't have dared
to plot against the general.

00:07:43.820 --> 00:07:46.230
The mastermind must be someone else.

00:07:46.460 --> 00:07:47.750
Wang Ling told me

00:07:47.900 --> 00:07:48.990
that Peng Kun has been keeping in touch

00:07:49.260 --> 00:07:51.260
with someone in the capital
over the years.

00:07:51.260 --> 00:07:53.550
And this person
who secretly associated with Peng Kun

00:07:53.750 --> 00:07:54.580
is likely

00:07:54.580 --> 00:07:56.900
to be the real culprit
who participated in Gu City's case.

00:07:57.460 --> 00:07:58.790
Peng Kun felt threatened

00:07:58.990 --> 00:08:01.190
and was forced to take risks.

00:08:01.190 --> 00:08:03.700
General Ling took Peng Kun
to the Northern Army Prison

00:08:03.820 --> 00:08:05.790
to find out this person quickly.

00:08:06.260 --> 00:08:07.340
So Official Zuo,

00:08:07.990 --> 00:08:09.020
how is this wrong?

00:08:09.670 --> 00:08:10.790
Even so,

00:08:11.070 --> 00:08:13.670
Peng Kun should be handed over
to the Ministry of Justice for trial.

00:08:14.070 --> 00:08:16.140
Zisheng is one of the victims
in Gu City.

00:08:16.630 --> 00:08:18.190
It's not suitable for him
to investigate this matter.

00:08:18.190 --> 00:08:20.150
It's precisely the reason

00:08:20.740 --> 00:08:22.940
I should be investigating this case

00:08:23.940 --> 00:08:26.740
so I could comfort
the dead souls of Gu City.

00:08:28.460 --> 00:08:30.910
Since this case is related to Gu City,

00:08:31.070 --> 00:08:32.740
I'll let Zisheng
and the Ministry of Justice

00:08:32.740 --> 00:08:33.860
investigate this together.

00:08:35.700 --> 00:08:36.550
Third Prince,

00:08:37.740 --> 00:08:38.670
keep a close watch.

00:08:39.030 --> 00:08:40.430
Don't use torture
to extort a confession.

00:08:42.310 --> 00:08:43.070
I shall obey.

00:08:47.340 --> 00:08:48.100
Your Majesty,

00:08:48.820 --> 00:08:50.910
Wang Ling said Peng Kun refuses
to confess

00:08:50.910 --> 00:08:52.220
because he's afraid he'll implicate
his wife and unborn child.

00:08:52.390 --> 00:08:53.220
If Your Majesty is willing

00:08:53.220 --> 00:08:55.070
to spare Wang Ling and her unborn child,

00:08:55.510 --> 00:08:56.740
she's willing to go
to the Ministry of Justice

00:08:57.310 --> 00:08:58.390
to persuade Peng Kun.

00:09:01.430 --> 00:09:02.860
The child is innocent.

00:09:03.310 --> 00:09:04.100
I'm not

00:09:04.550 --> 00:09:05.940
a tyrant ruler.

00:09:06.700 --> 00:09:08.430
If Peng Kun is willing to confess,

00:09:08.820 --> 00:09:09.580
I shall spare

00:09:09.700 --> 00:09:12.580
his wife and unborn child.

00:09:17.100 --> 00:09:18.390
Thank you, Your Majesty.

00:09:32.580 --> 00:09:33.860
Your Highness, just a moment.

00:09:40.270 --> 00:09:42.390
Marquis Chengyang, what's the matter?

00:09:43.510 --> 00:09:44.940
I have a request.

00:09:45.460 --> 00:09:47.030
Can I speak to you in private?

00:09:51.980 --> 00:09:52.790
Shaoshang.

00:09:54.460 --> 00:09:55.310
Shaoshang,

00:09:56.050 --> 00:09:57.440
what did Wang Ling tell you?

00:09:59.080 --> 00:09:59.960
She said

00:10:01.720 --> 00:10:03.840
to let Marquis Yue give himself away,

00:10:05.200 --> 00:10:07.410
you watched him collude with Liang Xia

00:10:07.930 --> 00:10:09.050
to kill Liang Shang

00:10:09.600 --> 00:10:11.690
and frame the Crown Prince.

00:10:13.810 --> 00:10:14.840
Is that true?

00:10:18.570 --> 00:10:20.290
Marquis Yue set up Wen Xiujun

00:10:21.360 --> 00:10:23.050
to mint coins in Shouchun
without permission.

00:10:24.530 --> 00:10:25.810
You already knew about it earlier.

00:10:27.170 --> 00:10:29.320
But you never planned
to tell Her Majesty.

00:10:30.170 --> 00:10:31.440
Let alone stop it.

00:10:33.890 --> 00:10:36.480
You want His Majesty to be disappointed
in Her Majesty and the Crown Prince

00:10:37.690 --> 00:10:39.570
than think of helping them hide it.

00:10:41.720 --> 00:10:43.010
Is that true?

00:10:48.930 --> 00:10:50.240
You punished Wen Xiujun.

00:10:53.050 --> 00:10:54.890
I thought you were avenging me.

00:10:56.840 --> 00:10:59.240
Rather than say you wrecked
the Censorate for me,

00:11:00.080 --> 00:11:00.840
we should say

00:11:00.840 --> 00:11:02.720
you purposely blew Fifth Princess's
case out of proportion

00:11:04.410 --> 00:11:06.930
to make Marquis Yue make his move
on the Eastern Palace.

00:11:10.050 --> 00:11:11.320
Is it true?

00:11:17.200 --> 00:11:19.240
Everyone says you do whatever it takes

00:11:20.120 --> 00:11:21.170
for me.

00:11:22.570 --> 00:11:23.810
But who would have thought

00:11:24.890 --> 00:11:26.440
that I was merely your cover?

00:11:29.570 --> 00:11:31.120
I don't want to be called
the root of your doing.

00:11:34.600 --> 00:11:35.690
I can't afford to bear that accusation.

00:11:42.960 --> 00:11:44.050
Have you finished talking?

00:11:45.440 --> 00:11:46.570
It's my turn to speak now.

00:11:52.600 --> 00:11:53.930
The Crown Prince does nothing.

00:11:55.050 --> 00:11:57.010
All the officials dislike him
for his foolishness and incompetence.

00:11:57.690 --> 00:11:59.050
If he makes a mistake,

00:12:00.530 --> 00:12:02.120
more people will criticize him.

00:12:04.120 --> 00:12:05.960
But he's so easily persuaded

00:12:06.530 --> 00:12:08.480
and values Wang Chun
and Grand Tutor Lou.

00:12:09.440 --> 00:12:10.320
Between those two,

00:12:10.650 --> 00:12:12.720
one is an incompetent person
who indulges in worldly pleasures.

00:12:13.120 --> 00:12:15.120
The other one is a hypocrite
who's complacent.

00:12:16.080 --> 00:12:17.170
If this goes on,

00:12:17.720 --> 00:12:19.320
the Crown Prince would be wrong
even if he makes no mistakes.

00:12:19.320 --> 00:12:20.720
Not only that, but it'll also lead
to more mistakes.

00:12:21.410 --> 00:12:22.960
If we don't remove useless officials,

00:12:24.320 --> 00:12:26.010
how can we build a great nation?

00:12:26.010 --> 00:12:27.120
So

00:12:27.650 --> 00:12:29.170
you were indeed behind all these.

00:12:30.050 --> 00:12:31.080
Shaoshang,

00:12:32.600 --> 00:12:33.890
I don't want you to misunderstand me.

00:12:33.890 --> 00:12:35.170
I never misunderstood you.

00:12:36.360 --> 00:12:37.810
I only want to know the truth.

00:12:39.930 --> 00:12:41.530
I want to know what kind
of person you are.

00:12:42.360 --> 00:12:44.200
How can you pretend nothing is going on

00:12:44.200 --> 00:12:45.600
in front of Her Majesty
and the Crown Prince

00:12:45.770 --> 00:12:47.410
when you were plotting on everyone?

00:12:47.410 --> 00:12:49.600
Everyone I plotted against deserved
to be punished

00:12:50.080 --> 00:12:51.410
and didn't deserve
the positions they were holding.

00:12:51.840 --> 00:12:53.480
But everything I did for you came

00:12:55.600 --> 00:12:57.200
from the bottom of my heart.

00:12:58.050 --> 00:12:59.960
But I want to understand you.

00:13:04.480 --> 00:13:05.440
I want to know

00:13:07.200 --> 00:13:08.360
what kind of person

00:13:08.360 --> 00:13:09.320
I'll be sharing my bed with

00:13:09.320 --> 00:13:10.770
and having children with in the future.

00:13:14.200 --> 00:13:15.770
We'll be married soon.

00:13:19.170 --> 00:13:21.050
But I don't know anything about you.

00:13:29.890 --> 00:13:30.810
Zisheng,

00:13:33.240 --> 00:13:34.480
I ask you one more time.

00:13:36.840 --> 00:13:37.810
Is there anything important

00:13:37.810 --> 00:13:39.290
you haven't told me yet?

00:13:43.120 --> 00:13:44.120
As long as you tell me,

00:13:46.840 --> 00:13:47.770
I'll believe you.

00:13:57.650 --> 00:13:58.600
Actually, I...

00:13:58.600 --> 00:13:59.600
General Ling!

00:14:02.120 --> 00:14:02.930
General Ling,

00:14:03.050 --> 00:14:04.360
the Crown Prince requests to see you.

00:14:24.570 --> 00:14:25.360
Go.

00:14:29.200 --> 00:14:30.120
I want to see how you face

00:14:30.120 --> 00:14:32.010
the brotherhood you have
with the Crown Prince.

00:15:03.650 --> 00:15:04.440
Zisheng.

00:15:21.320 --> 00:15:22.170
Your Highness.

00:15:22.320 --> 00:15:23.120
Zisheng,

00:15:23.600 --> 00:15:24.930
Marquis Chengyang rarely enters
the palace

00:15:25.120 --> 00:15:27.050
and it's not always that you both meet.

00:15:27.320 --> 00:15:29.440
Why don't we have lunch together today?

00:15:29.570 --> 00:15:30.410
Your Highness,

00:15:31.010 --> 00:15:32.720
His Majesty ordered me
to assist the Ministry of Justice

00:15:32.930 --> 00:15:34.240
in handling Peng Kun's case.

00:15:34.840 --> 00:15:36.530
The case is not solved yet.

00:15:36.650 --> 00:15:38.120
If there's nothing important,

00:15:38.480 --> 00:15:39.570
I shall take my leave.

00:15:40.240 --> 00:15:41.480
Zisheng, no need to hurry.

00:15:49.930 --> 00:15:50.810
Zisheng.

00:15:52.170 --> 00:15:53.530
Ever since you had returned
from Shouchun,

00:15:53.530 --> 00:15:55.480
you never came to visit me once.

00:15:56.200 --> 00:15:58.840
You're going to be married soon.

00:15:59.120 --> 00:16:00.650
I have something private

00:16:00.650 --> 00:16:01.890
to tell you.

00:16:02.650 --> 00:16:03.720
Can't I even do that?

00:16:04.320 --> 00:16:05.170
Zisheng,

00:16:05.690 --> 00:16:06.600
Marquis Chengyang only wants

00:16:06.770 --> 00:16:08.570
to have lunch with you.

00:16:09.080 --> 00:16:10.290
After all, you're family.

00:16:10.410 --> 00:16:11.960
Why are you so determined
to sever ties with him?

00:16:14.600 --> 00:16:15.440
Zisheng.

00:16:16.050 --> 00:16:18.170
Is that Peng Kun so important to you

00:16:18.840 --> 00:16:20.410
that he made you put aside
your meals and sleep

00:16:20.600 --> 00:16:22.240
and refused to delay even
for a moment?

00:16:22.930 --> 00:16:24.810
Why are you nervous

00:16:28.570 --> 00:16:30.290
about me investigating Peng Kun's case

00:16:32.410 --> 00:16:33.440
that you'd stall me

00:16:35.170 --> 00:16:36.720
from investigating the case at all cost?

00:16:39.290 --> 00:16:40.840
I only feel bad for you.

00:16:42.010 --> 00:16:43.930
I don't want to see you ruin your health

00:16:44.120 --> 00:16:46.240
from investigating cases, that's all.

00:16:46.640 --> 00:16:48.290
If it's just these meaningless words,

00:16:48.920 --> 00:16:50.160
you can say no more.

00:16:50.810 --> 00:16:51.840
I don't have time to hear them.

00:16:52.210 --> 00:16:54.120
Nor do I have time to pretend
that you're a kind father.

00:16:55.840 --> 00:16:57.320
Such pretense,

00:16:59.050 --> 00:17:00.360
you can leave it to Madam Chunyu.

00:17:00.530 --> 00:17:01.320
Zisheng!

00:17:08.360 --> 00:17:09.570
I couldn't

00:17:10.010 --> 00:17:11.490
help you at all.

00:17:13.210 --> 00:17:14.160
I'm already used to it.

00:17:15.360 --> 00:17:16.290
It doesn't matter.

00:17:18.160 --> 00:17:19.120
No matter.

00:18:50.080 --> 00:18:51.640
Madam Peng was preparing
to visit Peng Kun with his meal

00:18:51.640 --> 00:18:53.450
under His Majesty's decree.

00:18:53.770 --> 00:18:55.120
She wanted to persuade
her husband to confess.

00:18:55.290 --> 00:18:56.290
But she didn't expect

00:18:56.400 --> 00:18:58.080
that Peng Kun would die from illness

00:18:58.290 --> 00:18:59.680
when she found him in the dungeon.

00:19:08.400 --> 00:19:10.120
Has the clerk investigated

00:19:11.400 --> 00:19:12.400
the cause of death?

00:19:13.360 --> 00:19:14.400
The clerk found out

00:19:14.880 --> 00:19:16.050
that it was an asthma attack.

00:19:17.010 --> 00:19:18.400
Wang Ling said

00:19:18.840 --> 00:19:20.010
Peng Kun had asthma.

00:19:20.290 --> 00:19:21.450
He can't get near flowers.

00:19:21.570 --> 00:19:22.640
It should be an old illness.

00:19:22.920 --> 00:19:24.810
Peng Kun had committed a heavy offense
and was imprisoned alone.

00:19:25.080 --> 00:19:26.730
No one noticed he had an asthma attack.

00:19:26.920 --> 00:19:28.530
So he missed the chance for treatment.

00:19:29.010 --> 00:19:30.570
This is obviously his retribution.

00:19:31.360 --> 00:19:33.320
Peng Kun killed Lord Qian'an,

00:19:33.450 --> 00:19:35.360
which led to the breach of Gu City.

00:19:35.880 --> 00:19:37.810
Your uncle's family was slaughtered.

00:19:39.600 --> 00:19:40.880
He deserves more

00:19:41.080 --> 00:19:42.360
than dying like this.

00:19:43.210 --> 00:19:44.080
Zisheng,

00:19:44.400 --> 00:19:46.770
I know you can never forget
what happened in Gu City.

00:19:47.050 --> 00:19:48.080
Peng Kun is now dead.

00:19:48.730 --> 00:19:50.360
You can finally be at ease.

00:19:51.080 --> 00:19:53.080
After you marry Shaoshang,

00:19:53.250 --> 00:19:54.530
you can have a real life.

00:19:55.160 --> 00:19:57.120
Stop worrying about irrelevant things.

00:19:59.840 --> 00:20:01.010
Was it you?

00:20:01.210 --> 00:20:02.360
Did you kill him?

00:20:02.360 --> 00:20:03.160
Zisheng,

00:20:03.250 --> 00:20:04.320
calm down!

00:20:05.160 --> 00:20:06.400
It's all accident.

00:20:13.770 --> 00:20:15.010
Ling Yi.

00:20:40.480 --> 00:20:50.600
(Wang's Restaurant)

00:20:50.970 --> 00:20:52.010
Young Master.

00:20:52.010 --> 00:20:52.880
Get lost!

00:20:57.290 --> 00:20:58.120
Young Master, it's raining heavily.

00:20:58.120 --> 00:21:00.360
I said get lost!

00:23:00.490 --> 00:23:01.490
Yuan.

00:23:02.840 --> 00:23:03.730
I'm here.

00:23:06.120 --> 00:23:08.450
Did you pick the apricot flower?

00:23:09.450 --> 00:23:10.680
I'll go and pick them up now.

00:23:12.080 --> 00:23:13.490
You love apricot flowers the most.

00:23:14.530 --> 00:23:15.810
I'll pick as many

00:23:17.770 --> 00:23:19.010
as you want.

00:23:25.160 --> 00:23:26.840
Yuan,

00:23:28.810 --> 00:23:30.080
it'd be nice

00:23:32.490 --> 00:23:34.920
if I married you back then.

00:23:37.810 --> 00:23:39.400
I was a fool.

00:23:40.840 --> 00:23:42.570
An idiot.

00:23:45.210 --> 00:23:47.840
I should've married you.

00:23:51.010 --> 00:23:53.530
If I married you,

00:23:58.640 --> 00:24:00.250
I wouldn't have ended up

00:24:01.600 --> 00:24:04.050
in such a state.

00:24:11.120 --> 00:24:12.880
Yuan,

00:24:15.530 --> 00:24:17.920
I'm sorry.

00:24:44.250 --> 00:24:45.450
Come here.

00:25:22.080 --> 00:25:23.490
Don't forget

00:25:26.010 --> 00:25:27.450
our revenge.

00:25:29.840 --> 00:25:31.050
I promise you

00:25:36.160 --> 00:25:37.450
I'll never forget it.

00:25:39.160 --> 00:25:40.210
I shall

00:25:42.490 --> 00:25:43.530
avenge us.

00:25:46.360 --> 00:25:47.290
Good.

00:26:10.010 --> 00:26:11.730
Li.

00:26:18.080 --> 00:26:19.600
Li.

00:26:45.570 --> 00:26:47.290
Junhua.

00:27:32.010 --> 00:27:33.050
Don't worry.

00:28:08.160 --> 00:28:09.810
You didn't sleep all night.

00:28:09.810 --> 00:28:11.400
The physicians had prepared
some medicinal soup to calm the nerves.

00:28:12.120 --> 00:28:13.160
Why don't you take some rest first?

00:28:13.530 --> 00:28:15.730
So you'll have the energy
to handle Madam Huo's funeral.

00:28:16.320 --> 00:28:18.080
I knew this day would come.

00:28:21.810 --> 00:28:23.080
Human life is

00:28:24.490 --> 00:28:25.640
like plants in the spring.

00:28:27.290 --> 00:28:29.600
Death is inevitable in life.

00:28:32.290 --> 00:28:33.920
A person would have to bid farewell.

00:28:36.160 --> 00:28:38.250
it may be inevitable
to face separation because of death.

00:28:40.600 --> 00:28:42.450
But as long as you have them
in your heart,

00:28:43.320 --> 00:28:44.920
be it in the underworld

00:28:45.290 --> 00:28:46.880
or in a far distance,

00:28:47.530 --> 00:28:49.400
no one can truly separate you.

00:28:51.210 --> 00:28:52.730
Is it really like that?

00:29:00.600 --> 00:29:01.490
Zisheng,

00:29:05.280 --> 00:29:06.930
what did you want to tell me last night?

00:29:22.930 --> 00:29:23.800
Zisheng.

00:29:25.680 --> 00:29:27.050
No matter what you want to do,

00:29:29.240 --> 00:29:30.330
as long as you tell me,

00:29:32.570 --> 00:29:33.760
I'll not stop you.

00:29:38.010 --> 00:29:39.050
I know the case of Gu City

00:29:39.050 --> 00:29:40.680
has been a thorn in your heart.

00:29:41.600 --> 00:29:42.970
I also know

00:29:45.080 --> 00:29:47.280
the sacrifices you made
for the Huo Clan.

00:29:48.720 --> 00:29:50.760
If I had met you several years earlier,

00:29:53.080 --> 00:29:54.890
I could've shared this burden with you.

00:29:56.450 --> 00:29:58.600
You didn't have to face it all alone.

00:30:00.160 --> 00:30:01.720
Now that Peng Kun is dead,

00:30:03.200 --> 00:30:05.160
the case of Gu City
has already come to an end.

00:30:08.240 --> 00:30:09.410
You can finally put aside

00:30:11.490 --> 00:30:13.010
your vengeance.

00:30:14.450 --> 00:30:16.200
Before we marry,

00:30:18.600 --> 00:30:20.280
I hope you can trust me.

00:30:29.160 --> 00:30:30.520
(Memorial Tablet
of Eldest Brother, Huo Chong)

00:30:30.720 --> 00:30:31.760
Shaoshang.

00:30:33.450 --> 00:30:34.680
If I do

00:30:36.760 --> 00:30:38.800
something that shakes the world one day,

00:30:43.200 --> 00:30:45.330
would you still feel the same for me?

00:30:49.330 --> 00:30:51.010
Your mother's coffin is here.

00:30:53.760 --> 00:30:55.760
I'm willing to swear an oath
before her.

00:31:07.240 --> 00:31:08.280
Spirits of the ancestors

00:31:09.410 --> 00:31:10.530
and divine deities as my witness.

00:31:12.640 --> 00:31:13.720
I, Cheng Shaoshang

00:31:14.160 --> 00:31:15.200
hereby make an oath

00:31:17.720 --> 00:31:18.850
that Ling Buyi and I

00:31:21.010 --> 00:31:22.160
will never walk away

00:31:23.930 --> 00:31:25.050
from our love in this life.

00:31:27.450 --> 00:31:28.640
If he doesn't leave me,

00:31:32.120 --> 00:31:33.280
I shall never forsake him.

00:31:37.200 --> 00:31:38.280
I swear on my will

00:31:41.970 --> 00:31:43.530
I will not regret it in this life.

00:31:51.600 --> 00:31:52.410
Zisheng,

00:31:53.600 --> 00:31:54.930
I dare to form a bond with a bite.

00:31:56.800 --> 00:31:57.760
Do you dare?

00:32:54.410 --> 00:32:56.080
Both of us have formed a bond
from this bite.

00:32:59.050 --> 00:33:00.200
This pain will link our hearts.

00:33:04.280 --> 00:33:06.050
I ask you again.

00:33:09.890 --> 00:33:11.600
Do you have anything to tell me?

00:33:19.800 --> 00:33:21.280
If someone hurts your family

00:33:22.120 --> 00:33:23.530
and you know that person is guilty

00:33:24.890 --> 00:33:26.930
but you can't punish him by law,

00:33:29.640 --> 00:33:30.760
what will you do?

00:33:30.850 --> 00:33:32.410
If someone hurts a person close to me,

00:33:32.490 --> 00:33:33.890
I won't forgive them.

00:33:34.410 --> 00:33:35.800
(I'll return the pain)

00:33:36.120 --> 00:33:37.970
(1,000-fold back to them.)

00:33:39.600 --> 00:33:41.280
No matter what happens,

00:33:42.680 --> 00:33:43.890
I'll help you.

00:33:45.530 --> 00:33:46.930
No matter what it is,

00:33:49.680 --> 00:33:51.490
I'll always stand on your side.

00:34:03.280 --> 00:34:04.370
No.

00:34:18.970 --> 00:34:20.050
You scum!

00:34:21.330 --> 00:34:23.280
You have the nerve to see her?

00:34:24.370 --> 00:34:25.200
Get out!

00:34:26.450 --> 00:34:28.010
We don't welcome you!

00:34:29.530 --> 00:34:30.530
Marquis Cui,

00:34:30.530 --> 00:34:31.410
there are many rumors

00:34:31.410 --> 00:34:33.600
about you and Junhua.

00:34:33.600 --> 00:34:35.010
If you stop us from entering,

00:34:35.010 --> 00:34:37.280
aren't you afraid
people will criticize her?

00:34:37.490 --> 00:34:40.080
You shameless woman!

00:34:41.200 --> 00:34:43.330
Don't think about slandering Junhua.

00:34:44.370 --> 00:34:46.160
Do you think everyone is

00:34:46.490 --> 00:34:48.120
an adulterer like you?

00:34:51.930 --> 00:34:52.800
Dear!

00:34:56.120 --> 00:34:57.280
I wonder what brings Marquis Chengyang

00:34:58.200 --> 00:35:00.120
to my mother's funeral hall.

00:35:01.240 --> 00:35:02.600
I came to see her off.

00:35:03.850 --> 00:35:05.280
Why did he hurt me?

00:35:05.450 --> 00:35:06.570
Hurt you?

00:35:07.410 --> 00:35:08.970
I was obviously hitting you!

00:35:17.450 --> 00:35:18.330
Zisheng,

00:35:18.760 --> 00:35:21.530
it'll be your father's 50th birthday
in seven days.

00:35:21.890 --> 00:35:23.680
He plans to hold a banquet at home.

00:35:23.850 --> 00:35:25.680
The Ling Clan from over the country

00:35:25.680 --> 00:35:26.970
had already arrived here.

00:35:27.200 --> 00:35:28.570
Your father came here
to invite you and your mother

00:35:28.930 --> 00:35:32.050
to his birthday banquet today.

00:35:32.200 --> 00:35:33.120
But we didn't expect

00:35:34.080 --> 00:35:36.370
Junhua suddenly pass away

00:35:36.680 --> 00:35:38.330
and leave us forever.

00:35:40.450 --> 00:35:41.890
We can forget about the banquet.

00:35:43.570 --> 00:35:44.720
Junhua just passed away.

00:35:46.530 --> 00:35:48.160
It's not proper

00:35:50.010 --> 00:35:50.930
to hold a birthday banquet at this time.

00:35:50.930 --> 00:35:53.330
But the Ling Clan has arrived
in the capital.

00:35:53.600 --> 00:35:55.120
We can't reschedule.

00:35:56.080 --> 00:35:57.680
Since it's already been set,

00:35:59.280 --> 00:36:00.490
just hold the banquet as scheduled.

00:36:01.120 --> 00:36:02.600
On your birthday,

00:36:03.160 --> 00:36:04.760
I'll send a gift from Mother

00:36:06.530 --> 00:36:07.680
to you.

00:36:10.200 --> 00:36:11.280
I'm happy

00:36:12.530 --> 00:36:13.680
that you can come.

00:36:14.050 --> 00:36:16.080
I'll prepare
your favorite food and drinks.

00:36:17.720 --> 00:36:19.280
I know you're sad.

00:36:19.890 --> 00:36:21.530
But nothing is left after a person dies.

00:36:22.010 --> 00:36:24.010
You must take good care of your health.
