00:01:29.540 --> 00:01:32.660
=Episode 49=

00:02:17.500 --> 00:02:18.980
You shouldn't have come.

00:02:19.610 --> 00:02:21.010
Who on earth are you?

00:02:23.700 --> 00:02:24.660
Ling Buyi

00:02:27.940 --> 00:02:29.220
or Huo Wushang?

00:02:34.140 --> 00:02:35.660
Regardless of who I am,

00:02:40.330 --> 00:02:42.100
my heart for you will never change.

00:02:51.570 --> 00:02:53.050
Why must it be today?

00:02:57.660 --> 00:02:59.570
Why do you still refuse to tell me?

00:03:00.220 --> 00:03:02.260
Because I must avenge

00:03:06.980 --> 00:03:08.330
the whole clan's massacre.

00:03:10.380 --> 00:03:11.260
Shaoshang,

00:03:12.500 --> 00:03:14.010
our wedding date has been set.

00:03:17.290 --> 00:03:19.220
If I were to take revenge

00:03:21.450 --> 00:03:22.850
only after our marriage,

00:03:25.010 --> 00:03:26.980
it would surely implicate
the Cheng's Family.

00:03:30.890 --> 00:03:33.140
The buck stops here with me.

00:03:35.260 --> 00:03:36.850
I won't let the Cheng's Family

00:03:38.170 --> 00:03:39.500
be implicated because of me.

00:03:41.850 --> 00:03:43.010
Ling Buyi

00:03:43.010 --> 00:03:44.700
used the tiger seal
without authorization,

00:03:44.820 --> 00:03:46.330
disrupted the military defense,

00:03:46.610 --> 00:03:48.010
and held the intention of treason.

00:03:48.010 --> 00:03:49.330
These are unpardonable crimes.

00:03:50.140 --> 00:03:51.010
Today,

00:03:51.290 --> 00:03:53.540
if he dares take a step
through this door,

00:03:54.010 --> 00:03:55.290
kill him without mercy!

00:03:55.770 --> 00:03:56.700
Yes, General!

00:04:02.970 --> 00:04:04.010
Shaoshang,

00:04:07.820 --> 00:04:09.500
I have no way out now.

00:04:14.450 --> 00:04:15.970
I will pay

00:04:19.860 --> 00:04:21.330
for my own wrongdoings.

00:04:24.700 --> 00:04:26.330
We'll hereby bid each other farewell.

00:04:30.970 --> 00:04:32.530
We won't be seeing each other again.

00:04:44.140 --> 00:04:45.090
Young Master,

00:04:48.180 --> 00:04:49.180
please stay alive.

00:06:45.330 --> 00:06:46.500
Ling Buyi,

00:06:47.260 --> 00:06:48.700
you deployed the army
without authorization.

00:06:48.890 --> 00:06:50.570
I'm here to bring you to justice!

00:06:51.180 --> 00:06:52.820
If you dare take another step,

00:06:52.820 --> 00:06:54.260
you'll be killed without mercy!

00:07:17.970 --> 00:07:20.770
Ling Buyi, how dare you
disobey the imperial edict!

00:07:22.010 --> 00:07:23.590
If you dare take another step,

00:07:24.210 --> 00:07:25.620
(Marquis Chengyang's Residence)
thousands of arrows

00:07:26.060 --> 00:07:27.150
will take your life.

00:08:07.970 --> 00:08:09.380
Bring it on!

00:08:11.500 --> 00:08:12.770
Kill!

00:08:47.340 --> 00:08:49.530
General.

00:09:07.170 --> 00:09:08.050
Good job.

00:09:08.500 --> 00:09:10.140
You live up to your identity
as my daughter.

00:09:11.460 --> 00:09:13.170
Niaoniao, run quickly!

00:09:13.580 --> 00:09:14.690
Run quickly!

00:09:15.380 --> 00:09:16.170
General.

00:09:21.930 --> 00:09:24.050
Why are you all still standing there?
Chase after him!

00:09:24.050 --> 00:09:24.980
Yes, General!

00:09:24.980 --> 00:09:25.980
Chase after him!

00:09:37.930 --> 00:09:39.050
Seize him!

00:10:33.290 --> 00:10:34.410
Lady Cheng,

00:10:35.930 --> 00:10:37.690
the traitor Ling Buyi

00:10:37.930 --> 00:10:39.340
killed his father and deployed the army.

00:10:39.340 --> 00:10:41.170
He has committed heinous

00:10:41.340 --> 00:10:42.620
and unpardonable crimes!

00:10:45.410 --> 00:10:47.170
If you refuse to surrender now,

00:10:47.290 --> 00:10:48.890
then please don't blame me.

00:11:01.930 --> 00:11:03.140
Don't be silly.

00:11:04.100 --> 00:11:06.050
I need to walk this path alone.

00:11:07.260 --> 00:11:08.410
You shouldn't have been

00:11:11.410 --> 00:11:12.930
amongst my companions.

00:11:19.740 --> 00:11:20.580
Fine.

00:11:21.050 --> 00:11:23.050
Since you've never treated me
as your companion,

00:11:23.980 --> 00:11:24.930
then tell me.

00:11:25.220 --> 00:11:26.220
Why did we

00:11:26.620 --> 00:11:27.980
swear our alliance

00:11:28.380 --> 00:11:29.460
by biting the arm

00:11:30.620 --> 00:11:31.740
before your mother's
memorial tablet then?

00:11:34.930 --> 00:11:35.810
I've said

00:11:37.460 --> 00:11:38.890
that you're not alone.

00:11:39.770 --> 00:11:40.810
You don't have to be afraid.

00:11:42.650 --> 00:11:44.100
I'll live and die with you.

00:11:48.010 --> 00:11:49.460
I have no choice.

00:11:50.500 --> 00:11:51.690
You shouldn't have come.

00:11:51.690 --> 00:11:53.290
But I came eventually.

00:11:53.290 --> 00:11:55.500
The entire Cheng Family
came to save you.

00:11:58.740 --> 00:11:59.770
You said you've never

00:12:00.050 --> 00:12:01.620
truly felt loved since you were a child.

00:12:02.980 --> 00:12:04.340
I've come to shower you with love.

00:12:05.010 --> 00:12:06.740
You said you like the fireworks.

00:12:08.170 --> 00:12:09.620
My family has presented it to you.

00:12:11.650 --> 00:12:13.170
Why can't you

00:12:14.380 --> 00:12:16.140
let go of your hatred still

00:12:16.140 --> 00:12:17.620
and be considerate of me?

00:12:20.010 --> 00:12:20.930
Shaoshang,

00:12:22.340 --> 00:12:23.380
for you,

00:12:24.260 --> 00:12:26.860
it may be just
a 15-year-long national hatred.

00:12:30.010 --> 00:12:30.930
For me,

00:12:36.340 --> 00:12:38.050
I personally witnessed it.

00:12:41.260 --> 00:12:44.620
It is a blood feud
stuck in my heart for years.

00:12:45.530 --> 00:12:47.340
Did you know
that when I fall asleep at night,

00:12:47.980 --> 00:12:50.770
I can hear the voices of grievances
of the Gu city's souls

00:12:52.650 --> 00:12:53.500
and see

00:12:55.050 --> 00:12:56.260
parents and siblings

00:12:56.260 --> 00:12:58.650
dying tragically before my eyes?

00:13:05.290 --> 00:13:07.140
This is a heavy burden on me.

00:13:07.980 --> 00:13:09.260
It's way too heavy.

00:13:12.580 --> 00:13:13.890
I can't let go.

00:13:15.140 --> 00:13:16.810
And I won't let it go.

00:13:20.340 --> 00:13:21.290
Shaoshang,

00:13:22.810 --> 00:13:24.530
I know I've let you down.

00:13:28.220 --> 00:13:29.530
I'm really sorry.

00:13:31.930 --> 00:13:34.170
But I'm a criminal now.

00:13:36.740 --> 00:13:37.980
Only my death

00:13:38.860 --> 00:13:40.380
will not bring you and your whole family

00:13:42.980 --> 00:13:44.530
any harm.

00:13:44.890 --> 00:13:45.890
Ling Buyi,

00:13:48.810 --> 00:13:51.050
if you dare abandon me today,

00:13:53.930 --> 00:13:56.140
I, Cheng Shaoshang, swear to Heaven

00:13:56.690 --> 00:13:58.890
that I will never forgive you.

00:14:00.620 --> 00:14:02.010
I will never forgive you

00:14:03.690 --> 00:14:05.050
for eternity.

00:14:06.580 --> 00:14:08.690
I never dared expect your forgiveness.

00:14:12.140 --> 00:14:13.260
Cheng Shaoshang,

00:14:14.930 --> 00:14:15.770
our fate

00:14:17.260 --> 00:14:19.340
is over.

00:14:21.860 --> 00:14:22.810
Listen up!

00:14:23.580 --> 00:14:24.580
Draw your bow!

00:14:28.740 --> 00:14:30.410
Obey my orders!

00:14:30.930 --> 00:14:32.690
Kill him and Lady Cheng

00:14:32.860 --> 00:14:34.290
without mercy!

00:14:34.290 --> 00:14:35.140
Yes, General!

00:14:36.380 --> 00:14:37.380
Shaoshang,

00:14:38.690 --> 00:14:40.500
live on well.

00:14:44.290 --> 00:14:45.410
I'm sorry.

00:15:08.890 --> 00:15:10.500
Ling Buyi!

00:15:11.770 --> 00:15:13.580
Ling Buyi!

00:15:14.620 --> 00:15:16.260
Ling Buyi!

00:15:18.010 --> 00:15:19.930
Ling Buyi!

00:15:22.690 --> 00:15:26.690
Ling Buyi!

00:15:54.670 --> 00:15:59.110
(Marquis Quling's Residence)

00:16:08.140 --> 00:16:09.740
Young Lady, drink up.

00:16:14.980 --> 00:16:15.690
What should we do now?

00:16:15.690 --> 00:16:17.460
Why can't she swallow the medicine?

00:16:17.620 --> 00:16:18.460
Pass it to me.

00:16:19.100 --> 00:16:20.100
Lift her.

00:16:21.890 --> 00:16:23.580
The lad Ling Buyi

00:16:23.980 --> 00:16:25.140
is really despicable

00:16:26.100 --> 00:16:27.650
for letting Niaoniao suffer like this.

00:16:27.930 --> 00:16:29.170
If he hadn't jumped off the cliff,

00:16:29.170 --> 00:16:30.650
I'd beat him up whenever I saw him.

00:16:32.980 --> 00:16:33.770
First Madam,

00:16:33.860 --> 00:16:35.650
the Third Prince
burst in with his people

00:16:35.650 --> 00:16:37.140
and requested Young Lady
to be taken away immediately.

00:16:39.290 --> 00:16:41.770
Aren't there many imperial bodyguards
standing guard out there?

00:16:42.290 --> 00:16:43.620
How did he manage to burst in then?

00:16:43.620 --> 00:16:44.980
He said those who dared stop him
would be killed.

00:16:45.100 --> 00:16:46.500
He practically killed his way in.

00:16:48.890 --> 00:16:49.780
What?

00:16:50.620 --> 00:16:52.380
Where do they want to take Niaoniao to?

00:17:06.580 --> 00:17:07.450
Third Prince.

00:17:11.060 --> 00:17:13.100
Third Prince, please respect yourself.

00:17:13.820 --> 00:17:15.820
Although the Cheng Family
was detained on the spot

00:17:15.820 --> 00:17:17.100
for attempting to save Ling Buyi,

00:17:17.380 --> 00:17:19.410
you can't just walk
right over us arbitrarily.

00:17:19.970 --> 00:17:21.450
This is the chamber of a lady.

00:17:21.450 --> 00:17:23.860
No outside men are allowed to go in.

00:17:24.140 --> 00:17:25.140
First Madam,

00:17:25.540 --> 00:17:26.620
sorry for the offense.

00:17:27.060 --> 00:17:27.970
I must meet

00:17:28.170 --> 00:17:30.020
Cheng Shaoshang today.

00:17:30.300 --> 00:17:31.650
If she doesn't come out,

00:17:31.780 --> 00:17:33.250
then I won't leave.

00:17:33.780 --> 00:17:35.890
Third Prince, don't go too far.

00:17:35.890 --> 00:17:37.650
It's you all who have gone too far.

00:17:37.930 --> 00:17:40.450
Everyone knows how good Zisheng

00:17:40.450 --> 00:17:42.020
treats Lady Cheng.

00:17:42.690 --> 00:17:43.580
Today,

00:17:43.580 --> 00:17:46.250
she must help Zisheng
once more at any cost.

00:17:49.300 --> 00:17:51.140
It was he who betrayed us first.

00:17:52.410 --> 00:17:54.490
The Cheng Family has already done
all we can for him.

00:17:54.620 --> 00:17:55.450
To save him,

00:17:55.450 --> 00:17:57.060
we were willing to be thrown into jail.

00:17:57.060 --> 00:17:58.780
But look at how he treated Niaoniao.

00:17:58.780 --> 00:18:00.340
It was he who gave Niaoniao up first.

00:18:00.690 --> 00:18:02.100
With me, Xiao Yuanyi, around,

00:18:02.380 --> 00:18:04.730
I'll see who dares to touch my daughter.

00:18:14.490 --> 00:18:15.580
Zisheng.

00:18:17.690 --> 00:18:19.020
Zisheng.

00:18:28.020 --> 00:18:29.340
Who on earth are you?

00:18:33.820 --> 00:18:34.890
Ling Buyi

00:18:36.890 --> 00:18:38.140
or Huo Wushang?

00:18:45.410 --> 00:18:46.650
From now on,

00:18:48.340 --> 00:18:49.730
if you don't abandon me,

00:18:50.490 --> 00:18:51.450
I won't

00:18:52.450 --> 00:18:53.540
do so to you too.

00:18:56.690 --> 00:18:58.170
Do you have anything to say to me?

00:18:58.170 --> 00:18:59.210
Ling Buyi,

00:19:01.250 --> 00:19:02.890
why do you still refuse to tell me?

00:19:04.890 --> 00:19:06.250
Ling Buyi!

00:19:07.540 --> 00:19:09.300
Ling Buyi!

00:19:11.170 --> 00:19:13.650
Ling Buyi!

00:19:17.930 --> 00:19:19.620
If you want to enter
my daughter's chamber,

00:19:20.020 --> 00:19:21.930
you have to kill me first!

00:19:23.380 --> 00:19:25.100
We don't know whether Zisheng
is alive or dead.

00:19:25.540 --> 00:19:27.730
And Cheng Shaoshang has only fallen ill.

00:19:28.380 --> 00:19:29.690
Also, she's still alive.

00:19:30.340 --> 00:19:31.210
Why can't she go and save him then?

00:19:31.210 --> 00:19:32.890
Is he dead?

00:19:38.820 --> 00:19:39.730
Niaoniao.

00:19:56.800 --> 00:19:57.910
It's good to hear

00:19:58.880 --> 00:20:00.230
that he's not dead.

00:20:02.750 --> 00:20:05.120
Your Highness is imposing your authority
at the Cheng's Residence.

00:20:06.120 --> 00:20:08.040
There must be something else
Your Highness wants to say.

00:20:13.150 --> 00:20:15.320
He has committed heinous crimes.

00:20:15.800 --> 00:20:16.710
He killed his father,

00:20:17.120 --> 00:20:17.990
deployed the army,

00:20:18.360 --> 00:20:19.560
and used the tiger seal
without authorization.

00:20:20.710 --> 00:20:22.320
He has shaken the royal court.

00:20:22.910 --> 00:20:23.950
This morning,

00:20:23.950 --> 00:20:26.320
eighteen high-ranking officials
have joined forces to impeach him

00:20:27.320 --> 00:20:28.840
and intend to put him to death.

00:20:29.280 --> 00:20:31.040
This is the path he has chosen.

00:20:33.040 --> 00:20:34.190
What can I do?

00:20:39.430 --> 00:20:40.800
What does Your Highness think

00:20:41.840 --> 00:20:43.230
will become of him?

00:20:43.910 --> 00:20:44.990
Be a fugitive?

00:20:44.990 --> 00:20:46.880
Or conceal his identity?

00:20:47.670 --> 00:20:49.390
Aren't all lands in the world
belong to His Majesty?

00:20:50.950 --> 00:20:52.320
Where can he escape to?

00:20:53.120 --> 00:20:54.040
Or

00:20:54.040 --> 00:20:56.280
looking forward
to the death of His Majesty?

00:20:56.750 --> 00:20:58.470
And only show up when Your Highness

00:20:59.880 --> 00:21:01.120
has attained great achievements?

00:21:02.640 --> 00:21:05.520
Surviving in hiding and lying low?

00:21:06.600 --> 00:21:07.560
I guess

00:21:08.990 --> 00:21:10.670
he'd rather die.

00:21:10.670 --> 00:21:12.120
If he dies,

00:21:12.910 --> 00:21:14.390
I'll put all the blames on you.

00:21:14.390 --> 00:21:15.990
If he dies,

00:21:19.190 --> 00:21:20.600
I'll accompany him.

00:21:22.230 --> 00:21:23.360
What's there to be afraid of?

00:21:25.560 --> 00:21:27.080
Third Prince, say no more.

00:21:28.520 --> 00:21:30.150
Even if you didn't come over today,

00:21:32.080 --> 00:21:33.320
I'd go to the palace myself.

00:21:33.320 --> 00:21:34.040
Niaoniao,

00:21:34.430 --> 00:21:35.950
you've not recovered.

00:21:35.950 --> 00:21:36.880
You must not go.

00:21:36.880 --> 00:21:39.280
Yes, it's not worth doing it
for that lad.

00:21:39.280 --> 00:21:40.800
Why the concern for his life?

00:21:45.750 --> 00:21:46.560
Mother,

00:21:47.320 --> 00:21:48.190
Father,

00:21:48.710 --> 00:21:49.950
there are imperial physicians
in the palace.

00:21:50.710 --> 00:21:51.950
Don't you worry.

00:21:52.840 --> 00:21:53.750
Besides,

00:21:55.560 --> 00:21:57.640
Third Prince is waiting for my rebuttal.

00:21:58.470 --> 00:22:00.040
He won't let anything happen to me.

00:22:31.750 --> 00:22:33.120
When did Your Highness and Zisheng

00:22:33.640 --> 00:22:35.560
become good friends?

00:22:36.710 --> 00:22:37.990
I ran into someone

00:22:38.230 --> 00:22:39.360
at the Yanhui Tower that day.

00:22:40.080 --> 00:22:41.390
Was it you and Zisheng?

00:22:41.390 --> 00:22:42.280
Yes.

00:22:43.120 --> 00:22:44.150
Zisheng and I

00:22:44.150 --> 00:22:46.040
weren't in a disagreement
as outsiders thought we were.

00:22:46.560 --> 00:22:47.880
When Zisheng first got to the palace,

00:22:48.150 --> 00:22:49.950
he was tricked.

00:22:50.670 --> 00:22:52.320
I was passing by and rescued him.

00:22:52.560 --> 00:22:53.670
Wasn't it the Crown Prince?

00:22:55.320 --> 00:22:57.390
I still remember when Zisheng
first got to the palace,

00:22:57.390 --> 00:22:59.120
he was withdrawn and asocial.

00:23:00.080 --> 00:23:01.190
Actually, I was like him too.

00:23:01.390 --> 00:23:02.880
I've been withdrawn and asocial

00:23:02.880 --> 00:23:03.950
since I was a child.

00:23:04.080 --> 00:23:04.910
At that moment,

00:23:05.040 --> 00:23:06.520
he was hiding in a quiet spot.

00:23:06.840 --> 00:23:07.880
When I found him,

00:23:08.150 --> 00:23:09.600
I pulled him up.

00:23:10.190 --> 00:23:11.600
So both of you

00:23:13.190 --> 00:23:15.120
hooked up in childhood?

00:23:28.910 --> 00:23:30.360
What the crap are you talking about?

00:23:30.470 --> 00:23:31.750
Her Majesty and my mother

00:23:31.750 --> 00:23:33.710
have been minding their own businesses.

00:23:33.840 --> 00:23:36.040
To avoid suspicion,
I seldom interact with him.

00:23:36.360 --> 00:23:37.600
It was my uncle

00:23:38.040 --> 00:23:40.840
who persuaded Zisheng
to help me out at the Yanhui Tower.

00:23:41.670 --> 00:23:43.040
But he didn't agree to it.

00:23:47.190 --> 00:23:48.520
How did you know

00:23:49.040 --> 00:23:50.280
that it was us

00:23:51.080 --> 00:23:52.080
at the Yanhui Tower?

00:23:54.670 --> 00:23:56.150
He ate almond cake that day

00:23:56.670 --> 00:23:57.520
and was down with a fever.

00:23:57.670 --> 00:23:59.390
He was in a confused state.

00:23:59.880 --> 00:24:01.360
When I took care of him,

00:24:01.670 --> 00:24:03.190
I found the other half
of the jade pendant

00:24:03.190 --> 00:24:04.880
I'd lost at the Yanhui Tower.

00:24:20.990 --> 00:24:22.710
I heard two voices

00:24:23.190 --> 00:24:24.910
at the Yanhui Tower.

00:24:25.520 --> 00:24:27.640
I thought there were
only two people there.

00:24:27.840 --> 00:24:30.280
But it turned out to be
three people there.

00:24:31.150 --> 00:24:32.560
And the third person

00:24:33.470 --> 00:24:34.600
was Zisheng.

00:24:35.080 --> 00:24:36.640
You guessed it right.

00:24:37.710 --> 00:24:39.990
Zisheng didn't mean to hurt you.

00:24:40.190 --> 00:24:41.080
He kept it from you

00:24:41.080 --> 00:24:42.750
to keep you safe.

00:24:45.600 --> 00:24:47.430
You all have been plotting it all along.

00:24:47.990 --> 00:24:48.990
He took the Crown Prince's
lost tiger seal

00:24:48.990 --> 00:24:50.470
and deployed the army.

00:24:50.910 --> 00:24:51.990
I reckon

00:24:52.710 --> 00:24:54.710
the Crown Prince will have a hard time
keeping his position safe now.

00:24:55.190 --> 00:24:57.190
Should I congratulate Your Highness

00:24:57.950 --> 00:24:59.600
for having your wish come true soon?

00:25:00.120 --> 00:25:00.840
Zisheng

00:25:00.840 --> 00:25:01.910
didn't mean to implicate you.

00:25:01.910 --> 00:25:03.280
But that's what he did in the end.

00:25:07.360 --> 00:25:08.800
That's how he is.

00:25:10.080 --> 00:25:11.280
He's upright

00:25:11.750 --> 00:25:12.840
but dismal.

00:25:13.670 --> 00:25:15.120
He's brave

00:25:15.520 --> 00:25:16.800
and thoughtful.

00:25:17.430 --> 00:25:19.150
He'll go all out to save

00:25:19.800 --> 00:25:21.710
and abandon me.

00:25:24.120 --> 00:25:26.120
Are you certain that you can
defend Zisheng?

00:25:27.520 --> 00:25:28.470
I've said

00:25:29.750 --> 00:25:30.990
that if he dies,

00:25:32.150 --> 00:25:33.520
I'll die with him.

00:25:34.990 --> 00:25:36.910
In the face of danger, you appear

00:25:37.190 --> 00:25:38.840
logical and clear-minded,

00:25:38.840 --> 00:25:40.230
like an outsider.

00:25:40.520 --> 00:25:42.520
Do you know what it means by
living and dying together?

00:25:42.710 --> 00:25:44.230
And why concern can mess up one's mind?

00:25:49.520 --> 00:25:50.640
I can brew wine.

00:25:51.320 --> 00:25:52.910
My wines

00:25:53.190 --> 00:25:55.640
are the strongest and purest
in the capital.

00:25:56.080 --> 00:25:57.320
I can build a water wheel.

00:25:57.880 --> 00:25:59.040
My water wheels

00:25:59.520 --> 00:26:00.750
are even finer and simpler

00:26:00.750 --> 00:26:02.120
than the craftsmen's.

00:26:02.320 --> 00:26:04.190
Yet it can cut manpower
and animal resources by 30 percent.

00:26:04.800 --> 00:26:06.230
I can build kilns and fire tiles.

00:26:06.640 --> 00:26:07.840
My tiles

00:26:07.840 --> 00:26:09.750
are as strong and durable
as those used in the palace.

00:26:09.750 --> 00:26:11.750
Yet it can cut the manpower
and material resources by half.

00:26:12.430 --> 00:26:13.990
Whether Ling Buyi is around or not,

00:26:15.040 --> 00:26:17.150
I'm a lady who lives well.

00:26:17.710 --> 00:26:19.470
I have my parents
and workers to take care of.

00:26:19.950 --> 00:26:21.910
But you shouldn't question me harshly

00:26:22.230 --> 00:26:23.840
just because I'm a lady.

00:26:24.520 --> 00:26:25.840
Your fiance is going to die.

00:26:26.320 --> 00:26:27.800
Why didn't you die with him?

00:26:28.800 --> 00:26:30.640
I shouldn't be kept in the dark

00:26:30.840 --> 00:26:32.800
just because I'm a lady.

00:26:32.950 --> 00:26:34.390
I don't even know

00:26:34.390 --> 00:26:35.910
what my fiance's name is.

00:26:37.470 --> 00:26:38.750
Two days before my wedding,

00:26:39.640 --> 00:26:40.670
I managed to guess it right.

00:26:42.600 --> 00:26:45.190
I was hoping he'd tell me instead.

00:26:46.950 --> 00:26:48.190
But now,

00:26:48.710 --> 00:26:50.040
I can't resent

00:26:51.230 --> 00:26:52.390
and hate him

00:26:53.710 --> 00:26:55.080
because doing so

00:26:55.840 --> 00:26:58.390
is an act of indifference
and selfishness.

00:26:59.640 --> 00:27:01.470
You said he treated me whole-heartedly.

00:27:02.950 --> 00:27:04.600
I'm willing to cut my body apart

00:27:05.560 --> 00:27:07.800
and show him my heart

00:27:09.230 --> 00:27:11.560
to see for himself whether
I've treated him whole-heartedly or not.

00:27:13.320 --> 00:27:14.600
He saved my life,

00:27:15.150 --> 00:27:16.390
and I'll repay him with my life.

00:27:19.230 --> 00:27:20.880
If I can't save him today,

00:27:22.800 --> 00:27:24.190
I'll take my own life.

00:27:25.710 --> 00:27:27.280
I'm not afraid of death.

00:27:29.120 --> 00:27:30.230
If one day

00:27:30.430 --> 00:27:31.520
I feel like dying,

00:27:32.520 --> 00:27:34.320
that's because I'm tired of living.

00:27:35.120 --> 00:27:36.430
It's definitely not because

00:27:37.750 --> 00:27:40.120
I want to die with my only love.

00:27:41.840 --> 00:27:43.320
Ling Buyi is the person I love most

00:27:45.190 --> 00:27:46.670
in this world.

00:27:49.750 --> 00:27:50.750
But

00:27:54.320 --> 00:27:55.670
I am nobody but myself.

00:28:18.710 --> 00:28:19.560
Your Majesty,

00:28:19.670 --> 00:28:21.990
even if that lad
has committed heinous crimes,

00:28:22.280 --> 00:28:24.710
considering Huo's entire clan,

00:28:24.710 --> 00:28:26.390
I beg Your Majesty
to grant him a pardon.

00:28:26.910 --> 00:28:29.390
If it weren't
for Ling Yi's heinous deeds,

00:28:29.520 --> 00:28:31.040
he wouldn't have taken that move.

00:28:32.040 --> 00:28:33.320
I beg Your Majesty to show mercy.

00:28:33.910 --> 00:28:35.430
Show him mercy, Your Majesty.

00:28:41.520 --> 00:28:43.470
Anger and contempt are one thing.

00:28:43.670 --> 00:28:45.430
Murder and arson are another matter.

00:28:45.950 --> 00:28:47.520
Even if Madam Huo felt aggrieved,

00:28:47.640 --> 00:28:49.950
he shouldn't have killed his father

00:28:50.230 --> 00:28:51.320
to avenge his mother.

00:28:51.670 --> 00:28:53.390
This is totally unforgivable.

00:28:53.560 --> 00:28:55.280
We haven't even gotten
to the bottom of the matter.

00:28:56.190 --> 00:28:57.120
Official Zuo,

00:28:57.230 --> 00:28:58.710
you've already concluded
that General Ling

00:28:58.710 --> 00:29:01.150
has killed for Madam Huo's grievances?

00:29:02.640 --> 00:29:03.600
Could it be

00:29:03.880 --> 00:29:06.390
that Official Zuo already knows
the whole story?

00:29:06.560 --> 00:29:07.520
Official Yuan,

00:29:07.520 --> 00:29:08.710
what do you mean?

00:29:08.950 --> 00:29:10.750
As a court official
at the Ministry of Justice,

00:29:10.750 --> 00:29:11.640
are you looking

00:29:11.640 --> 00:29:14.360
for a reason for the murderer
to escape his punishments?

00:29:15.040 --> 00:29:15.880
Official Ji,

00:29:16.080 --> 00:29:17.280
you're the Ministry of Justice.

00:29:17.390 --> 00:29:19.670
Are you going to look into

00:29:19.950 --> 00:29:21.150
Official Yuan's partiality?

00:29:21.150 --> 00:29:22.190
Official Zuo,

00:29:23.080 --> 00:29:24.670
Ling Buyi has committed

00:29:24.880 --> 00:29:26.800
the crimes of killing his father,
deploying the army,

00:29:26.800 --> 00:29:28.800
and deceiving the Eastern Palace.

00:29:28.950 --> 00:29:31.880
We, the Ministry of Justice,
will investigate each of these crimes.

00:29:32.120 --> 00:29:34.990
If all of these are true,

00:29:35.190 --> 00:29:36.990
he won't be able to escape

00:29:36.990 --> 00:29:38.360
the law.

00:29:38.710 --> 00:29:40.230
Are you all done yet?

00:29:48.320 --> 00:29:50.150
Zisheng was raised
in the Changqiu Palace

00:29:51.230 --> 00:29:52.750
and nurtured personally by Your Majesty.

00:29:53.360 --> 00:29:54.800
Who didn't

00:29:55.840 --> 00:29:56.950
know

00:29:56.950 --> 00:29:59.320
that his future is bright and boundless?

00:29:59.880 --> 00:30:01.640
Had he gone crazy or been stupid

00:30:01.640 --> 00:30:03.520
that he killed his father for no reason

00:30:04.190 --> 00:30:05.190
so you all

00:30:05.190 --> 00:30:07.190
could denounce him now?

00:30:07.360 --> 00:30:09.670
It's the truth
that Ling Buyi killed his father.

00:30:09.670 --> 00:30:11.880
Is this still excusable?

00:30:11.880 --> 00:30:13.280
Ling Buyi didn't kill his father.

00:30:16.560 --> 00:30:18.360
Official Zuo, you're righteous

00:30:18.670 --> 00:30:20.150
but you've made a mistake
in your first sentence.

00:30:20.320 --> 00:30:21.190
Miss Cheng,

00:30:21.520 --> 00:30:24.040
Ling Buyi is your fiance.

00:30:24.320 --> 00:30:27.040
Did you come here today
to intercede for him?

00:30:27.880 --> 00:30:29.560
What can't Ling Buyi do?

00:30:29.750 --> 00:30:31.040
He had even fought against the Censorate

00:30:31.040 --> 00:30:32.710
for you back then.

00:30:33.710 --> 00:30:34.910
Official Zuo, you're afraid

00:30:34.910 --> 00:30:36.470
that no one knows you're taking revenge.

00:30:36.640 --> 00:30:38.120
That's why you keep reminding us

00:30:38.230 --> 00:30:39.880
about the fight.

00:30:40.040 --> 00:30:40.880
You...

00:30:43.390 --> 00:30:44.120
Your Majesty,

00:30:44.120 --> 00:30:45.520
Miss Cheng was at the scene

00:30:45.640 --> 00:30:47.040
with Ling Buyi.

00:30:47.560 --> 00:30:51.040
I beg Your Majesty to take her
into custody for questioning.

00:30:54.280 --> 00:30:55.800
What did you say?

00:30:56.390 --> 00:30:57.600
Why did you say

00:30:58.470 --> 00:31:00.150
that Zisheng did not kill his father?

00:31:01.880 --> 00:31:02.990
Your Majesty,

00:31:02.990 --> 00:31:04.710
Ling Yi isn't
Zisheng's biological father.

00:31:07.040 --> 00:31:08.230
Zisheng's biological father

00:31:08.990 --> 00:31:10.470
is General Huo Chong.

00:31:11.470 --> 00:31:12.430
What?

00:31:13.150 --> 00:31:14.230
What did you say?

00:31:19.390 --> 00:31:20.230
You...

00:31:22.080 --> 00:31:23.280
Please repeat yourself.

00:31:27.600 --> 00:31:29.640
Zisheng is General Huo Chong's orphan,

00:31:31.280 --> 00:31:32.520
Huo Wushang.

00:31:41.750 --> 00:31:42.670
Cheng Shaoshang,

00:31:43.150 --> 00:31:45.080
are you aware
of what you're saying here?

00:31:45.520 --> 00:31:47.230
You may be Ling Buyi's fiancee,

00:31:47.520 --> 00:31:48.800
but you shouldn't
say something so absurd

00:31:48.800 --> 00:31:50.670
just to have him exonerated.

00:31:50.990 --> 00:31:53.120
How could Ling Yi not know

00:31:53.710 --> 00:31:55.230
whether Ling Buyi
is his son or not, right?

00:31:55.840 --> 00:31:57.840
How could Huo Junhua not know, right?

00:31:57.990 --> 00:31:58.800
Your Majesty,

00:32:00.040 --> 00:32:00.840
Zisheng

00:32:00.840 --> 00:32:02.710
couldn't take care
of Madam Huo all these years.

00:32:02.990 --> 00:32:04.600
Did Your Majesty know the reason?

00:32:05.150 --> 00:32:06.320
Then, does Your Majesty think

00:32:06.600 --> 00:32:07.670
that Zisheng looks like

00:32:08.840 --> 00:32:10.120
Marquis Chengyang?

00:32:11.120 --> 00:32:13.750
Zisheng indeed
doesn't look like Marquis Chengyang.

00:32:16.280 --> 00:32:17.840
He looks more like General Huo.

00:32:21.120 --> 00:32:22.880
Your Majesty.

00:32:25.190 --> 00:32:26.080
Get off.

00:32:31.600 --> 00:32:32.640
Carry on.

00:32:34.040 --> 00:32:34.910
Go on.

00:32:35.390 --> 00:32:37.150
General Huo's son, Huo Wushang,

00:32:37.360 --> 00:32:38.520
is allergic to almonds.

00:32:38.710 --> 00:32:40.600
But Ling Yi's son, Ling Buyi,

00:32:41.190 --> 00:32:42.670
loves almond cake the most.

00:32:42.910 --> 00:32:43.750
That day,

00:32:43.990 --> 00:32:45.520
Madam Huo had prepared
some almond cakes.

00:32:45.750 --> 00:32:46.710
Come on.

00:32:47.840 --> 00:32:49.950
Zisheng couldn't refuse, so he ate it.

00:32:50.470 --> 00:32:52.640
That night, he had a high fever
and rashes all over his body.

00:32:53.230 --> 00:32:54.280
From that day on,

00:32:54.950 --> 00:32:56.560
I suspected something.

00:32:57.080 --> 00:32:58.520
It wasn't until Marquis Chengyang's
birthday banquet

00:33:01.120 --> 00:33:02.600
that he personally revealed to me

00:33:04.120 --> 00:33:05.950
he was the late Marquis Huo's son,

00:33:06.750 --> 00:33:07.840
Huo Wushang.

00:33:09.910 --> 00:33:10.750
Your Majesty,

00:33:11.190 --> 00:33:13.230
it was Ling Yi who led
to the destruction of Gu city.

00:33:13.640 --> 00:33:15.840
He was the culprit
behind General Huo's tragic death.

00:33:16.040 --> 00:33:17.470
All Zisheng did

00:33:17.470 --> 00:33:19.470
was avenge his father.

00:33:24.520 --> 00:33:25.600
Then, Junhua...

00:33:26.190 --> 00:33:26.990
She...

00:33:28.800 --> 00:33:29.990
Marquis Cui, do you remember

00:33:29.990 --> 00:33:31.880
what Madam Huo said on her deathbed?

00:33:32.910 --> 00:33:34.430
Never forget

00:33:37.190 --> 00:33:38.750
our revenge.

00:33:40.400 --> 00:33:42.120
Li,

00:33:43.640 --> 00:33:46.150
I'm coming for you.

00:33:57.600 --> 00:33:59.600
Do you think you can convict
Marquis Chengyang for the crime

00:33:59.750 --> 00:34:01.790
with your words alone?

00:34:03.230 --> 00:34:04.670
Where's your evidence?

00:34:05.400 --> 00:34:07.190
Since Official Zuo asks for evidence,

00:34:07.640 --> 00:34:08.560
why don't

00:34:08.830 --> 00:34:11.710
we quickly rescue Ling Buyi
from the bottom of the cliff?

00:34:12.120 --> 00:34:13.270
What is true and what is not

00:34:13.750 --> 00:34:14.960
will be known during the interrogation.

00:34:14.960 --> 00:34:16.440
If you rescue him,

00:34:17.190 --> 00:34:19.640
then what he says will be the truth.

00:34:21.040 --> 00:34:23.310
I now know Zisheng's difficulties.

00:34:23.960 --> 00:34:26.520
He not only has no evidence that Marquis
Chengyang conspired with the enemy

00:34:26.710 --> 00:34:28.310
but also can't prove

00:34:28.310 --> 00:34:29.480
his real identity now.

00:34:30.560 --> 00:34:31.870
Marquis Chengyang is dead.

00:34:31.870 --> 00:34:33.150
And a dead man tells no tales.

00:34:33.670 --> 00:34:34.830
If Marquis Chengyang were alive,

00:34:35.960 --> 00:34:36.960
he would assert

00:34:36.960 --> 00:34:38.600
that he was Zisheng's biological father.

00:34:39.120 --> 00:34:40.870
Zisheng wouldn't be able to refute it.

00:34:41.960 --> 00:34:42.830
Your Majesty,

00:34:44.350 --> 00:34:46.000
Zisheng was really desperate

00:34:46.000 --> 00:34:47.310
that he made such a decision.

00:34:47.310 --> 00:34:48.870
The evidence says it all.

00:34:49.400 --> 00:34:51.640
What you said

00:34:51.920 --> 00:34:53.670
sounded as if we were
being unreasonable here.

00:34:53.670 --> 00:34:55.040
You're indeed being unreasonable.

00:34:55.920 --> 00:34:57.440
Official Zuo, you're constantly
on the offensive

00:34:57.560 --> 00:34:59.790
and attempt to put
all the charges on Zisheng.

00:34:59.790 --> 00:35:01.790
Are you doing this
to vent your anger or for justice?

00:35:02.120 --> 00:35:03.640
You know it better.

00:35:03.790 --> 00:35:04.870
That's a pack of lies!

00:35:04.870 --> 00:35:05.750
Silence!

00:35:06.670 --> 00:35:07.520
Official Zuo,

00:35:07.640 --> 00:35:10.080
are you an Imperial Counsellor
or a blabbermouth?

00:35:10.750 --> 00:35:12.120
His Majesty is still in the hall.

00:35:12.310 --> 00:35:14.150
Yet you keep babbling here.

00:35:14.480 --> 00:35:15.920
Are you trying
to disrespect His Majesty?

00:35:16.400 --> 00:35:18.270
Are you all done yet?

00:35:22.190 --> 00:35:24.310
Whether he's Li or Zheng,

00:35:25.440 --> 00:35:26.350
I

00:35:27.480 --> 00:35:30.270
have my way to prove it.

00:35:32.480 --> 00:35:33.920
I had seen Zheng

00:35:34.080 --> 00:35:35.600
when he was a child.

00:35:35.870 --> 00:35:37.120
He has

00:35:39.230 --> 00:35:41.520
a special birthmark on his body.

00:35:41.520 --> 00:35:43.000
It's a small tiger head,

00:35:45.870 --> 00:35:47.120
but with three ears.

00:35:47.870 --> 00:35:50.670
It's located half an inch
below Zisheng's waist.

00:35:51.520 --> 00:35:52.750
I saw it

00:35:52.920 --> 00:35:54.480
when I wiped Zisheng's body

00:35:54.790 --> 00:35:55.870
during his high fever.

00:35:58.120 --> 00:35:59.150
That's right.

00:36:00.440 --> 00:36:02.350
It's a tiger head with three ears.

00:36:04.350 --> 00:36:05.190
Hurry up.

00:36:05.560 --> 00:36:06.790
Send someone

00:36:07.480 --> 00:36:10.270
to lift that lad
from the bottom of the cliff.

00:36:11.000 --> 00:36:12.040
Yes, Your Majesty.

00:36:12.040 --> 00:36:14.270
Take a few imperial physicians along.

00:36:14.400 --> 00:36:15.600
And some rations too.

00:36:15.600 --> 00:36:18.400
The lad hasn't eaten
and drunk anything for two days.

00:36:18.400 --> 00:36:19.640
Yes, Your Majesty.

00:36:19.920 --> 00:36:21.040
When he returns,

00:36:22.000 --> 00:36:23.000
I will

00:36:23.120 --> 00:36:25.120
take him to his father's grave

00:36:25.350 --> 00:36:26.920
and beat him up.

00:36:27.480 --> 00:36:29.350
He has been so obsessed.

00:36:30.480 --> 00:36:33.080
Why couldn't he talk it out clearly?

00:36:33.670 --> 00:36:35.640
Why must he choose to take such a risk?

00:36:44.520 --> 00:36:45.270
Your Majesty,

00:36:45.440 --> 00:36:47.400
Ling Buyi is still carrying

00:36:47.400 --> 00:36:49.230
the Crown Prince's tiger seal

00:36:49.920 --> 00:36:51.520
and the crime of deploying
the army without authorization.

00:36:51.520 --> 00:36:52.440
Will you

00:36:53.440 --> 00:36:54.480
be satisfied

00:36:54.640 --> 00:36:56.120
only when I atone

00:36:56.440 --> 00:36:58.520
for Zheng's crime?

00:37:04.040 --> 00:37:06.040
(Kill him and Lady Cheng)

00:37:06.040 --> 00:37:07.520
(without mercy!)

00:37:07.520 --> 00:37:08.400
(Yes, General!)

00:37:14.400 --> 00:37:15.350
Your Highness.

00:37:17.080 --> 00:37:18.040
What's the matter?

00:37:18.190 --> 00:37:19.870
Let's talk after I've brought
Zisheng back.

00:37:19.870 --> 00:37:21.120
Beware that someone might want

00:37:21.270 --> 00:37:22.830
to harm Zisheng during the rescue.

00:37:23.270 --> 00:37:25.190
When General Zuo
hunted Zisheng down that day,

00:37:25.520 --> 00:37:27.150
he didn't plan
to persuade Zisheng to surrender.

00:37:27.440 --> 00:37:29.350
He drove Zisheng to the cliff

00:37:29.350 --> 00:37:30.560
and ordered the release of arrows.

00:37:30.960 --> 00:37:31.920
Otherwise,

00:37:32.120 --> 00:37:33.480
Zisheng wouldn't have
jumped off the cliff.

00:37:35.830 --> 00:37:36.870
I get it.

00:37:37.120 --> 00:37:38.440
If they're disloyal,

00:37:38.440 --> 00:37:39.600
I won't let them go.

00:37:40.600 --> 00:37:41.640
Thank you so much

00:37:41.750 --> 00:37:42.960
for today.

00:37:43.310 --> 00:37:44.870
When Zisheng returns,

00:37:45.150 --> 00:37:47.480
I'll make him bow and apologize to you.

00:37:47.960 --> 00:37:48.920
Don't worry.

00:37:49.190 --> 00:37:50.710
Zisheng loves you so much.

00:37:50.830 --> 00:37:53.080
He'll surely obey you from then on.

00:39:06.710 --> 00:39:08.080
Shaosheng.
