I will never forget...
the night we spent together.
Seven Swords
Episode 22 Seven Swords
Daughter, you are engaged to the prince,
you must behave yourself from now on.
Father...
Won't you listen to my feelings?
No.
Father!
You told me that I should listen to my heart.
Minghui, you should rest now. We can talk about it tomorrow.
Father.
I was captured by your enemies. But they released me.
Aren't you surprised?
I have been a soldier for many years.
Nothing surprises me anymore.
Father...
There are a lot of things...
that I want to tell you about.
I don't want to get married.
What are you saying?
I don't want to get married.
Minghui. You are not a child anymore.
We have already told the Emperor about your marriage to the prince.
No one can change it.
Minghui is safe now.
We don't have to hold back anymore.
We must eradicate the Eagles of the Desert without further delay.
Any suggestions?
Your Highness.
My daughter has hindered our attack, please punish her.
Let's look forward not back.
Your Highness.
The Eagles of the Desert are nomads.
They need water to survive.
I have sent people to search...
for places they may go to.
Then we can use the same tactics against them.
They would never expect it.
We cannot use the same tactic twice.
Our enemies would know how to handle it.
And our army has travelled a long way.
We cannot rush them anymore.
If our enemies found out about them,
then they would be an easy target.
If we need to move quickly,
why don't we attack them on horseback?
Attack on horseback?
Even if you can move faster than the Eagles of the Desert,
how can you move faster than The Dragon and Transience Sword?
Let me ask you, how many heads will you give them?
General Nalan,
you are an experienced warrior, what do you think?
If we don't have an attack plan,
then we can only wait.
Wait for them to fall into our trap.
That is a good plan.
If they don't fall into our trap,
then we would have wasted our time.
They sneaked into our camp once before.
They won't be willing to give up.
Fei Hongjin likes to win.
Chu Zhaonan is a proud person.
They will become impatient.
Chengbin, order the soldiers...
to leave a gap in our camp defences.
Yes sir!
I have to go to stop my father and Prince Yu.
You should go back too.
Go back to Fei Hongjin.
Try your best to stop her.
Have you found out where Little King Lu is?
Mount Heaven is a treacherous place. I still cannot find a way up.
But I found a young woman at the foot of the mountain.
She may provide a clue to where Little King Lu is.
Oh.
I told her that I was a friend of the swordsmen from Mount Heaven.
She believed me.
She told me that her name is Man Ningna.
Her husband's name is Ke Limu.
Ke Limu is a good friend of Yang Yunchong.
I believe that they must know...
the whereabouts of Little King Lu.
Tell me,
where did you hide Little King Lu?
He is not your king.
You shouldn't suffer for him.
Tell us and we'll let you go home.
If you want to find him, find him yourself!
You...
Continue!
Princess. - Princess.
Let me in.
Princess.
Tell them to release her.
But... She is a hostage.
She is a woman.
There's no need to torture her.
Release her.
I'll let her serve me.
But...
Will you not do as I ask?
I don't dare.
Princess... If you want her, it's very simple.
If the prince says so, then I can release her immediately.
All right. I shall return for her in an hour.
If there is one more wound on her body,
I will hold you responsible for it.
Princess...
I've heard your words.
All right. I'll wait for an hour.
If you don't come back in an hour's time,
I will carry on with my interrogation.
Your Highness. I need to talk to you.
What is the emergency?
I want you to promise me first.
You know that I would promise whatever you ask me.
Tell me.
There is a woman in the prison.
Can you release her?
Allow her to serve me.
Thank you.
Remember, she is still a hostage.
She cannot leave the military camp.
I understand.
Thank you.
Ailike. What's happening?
Fei Hongjin. - Shhh!
It's late. No time to sleep.
Swordsman Chu... The leader has been tired for many days.
Let her sleep some more.
If you don't wake her up now,
she might scold you when she wake up.
What time is it?
Everyone is waiting outside.
Why did you let me sleep so late?
You were tired.
I won't forgive you next time.
Based on the progress of our practice,
we are assured success in a surprise attack.
We're now ready to hear your plan of attack.
I'm still working on a plan.
Come.
Let us drink to victory, the death of Duo Geduo and the return of our water.
Chu Zhaonan, I'll drink to you.
God bless the Eagles of the Desert.
Thank you.
God bless the Eagles of the Desert.
Don't worry.
Yang Yunchong is my friend too.
I will save you and get you out.
Thank you.
Old man.
Princess.
I want to ask a favour of you.
Of course...
Whatever you want.
I don't like to ask...
but only you can help me.
You are flattering me.
Princess. What is it?
Just tell me.
I want you to take someone out of the camp.
Oh...
Don't worry. It will be all right.
I will be indebted to you.
Don't say that.
My life has been without worth.
It would bring a little meaning...
if I can help you.
Princess. Don't. Don't.
Old man.
I will never forget about this.
Princess. How about this?
After midnight tomorrow, we'll meet here.
Bring the person here.
But don't let anybody see you.
All right. Thank you.
Were you looking for me?
I've been thinking about our attack,
I still feel that...
if we fight them face to face,
we don't have a good chance of winning.
I have come up with a plan.
What do you have in mind?
Last time, outside their military camp,
Duo Geduo deliberately let me go.
He wanted to use this trick to separate us.
I think that we can use this to our advantage.
You can pretend that you suspect me.
Then I can go and join him.
And then, we can cooperate.
How do you feel about this?
Don't underestimate Duo Geduo.
He might not trust you.
If he were to capture you, we would not be able to rescue you.
And no one could help us...
to destroy their firepower.
You don't have to worry about Duo Geduo.
I will make him believe me.
It's not that I don't trust you.
But it's too dangerous.
I don't want anything to happen to you.
Let me help you.
Fei Hongjin, I know that...
you are a strong and talented woman.
But you have been fighting alone all along.
My heart aches because of you.
I'm worried that if you keep on like this,
someday you will be exhausted.
I hope that I can fight the soldiers with you.
And protect your people.
What are you trying to say?
I like you.
Yang Yunchong has come back.
It was me who released Nalan Minghui.
I have come back now.
You can do whatever you like to me.
You risked your life to protect her.
Other than the fact that she saved your life,
there is really nothing else.
You like her.
You left with her,
why have you come back?
I came back to fight the soldiers with you.
During the battle, if you see Nalan Minghui,
will you still be able to use your sword to the fullest?
Fight with us?
You released Nalan Minghui.
That means you are our enemy.
I have promised my people that I will punish you.
Leader.
He found water for our people,
and he has saved our lives.
Please let him go.
Leader. Forgive Brother Yang.
Brother Yang.
Brother Yang...
I hope that you and Chu can be our friends not our enemies.
And help us to get back the water in the desert.
Yunchong, where is Nalan Minghui?
She is gone.
She went back to the military camp with Duo Geduo.
Brother. Let's go back to Hangzhou.
We can do some good in Hangzhou.
What about Duo Geduo?
We should kill Duo Geduo first.
And then go to Hangzhou.
That will help us in our goals.
How do you plan to achieve that?
I want to pretend to surrender then kill Duo Geduo,
But, I need the cooperation of the Eagles of the Desert,
and Fei Hongjin has not agreed to it yet.
If the Eagles of the Desert are willing to cooperate,
What is the chance of success?
One hundred percent.
All right.
Tomorrow I'll try to find Fei Hongjin and talk to her.
Given recent events,
will she still trust you?
Good night.
Leader.
Ailike, tell Chu Zhaonan that he can train with us.
Just don't let me see Yang Yunchong.
Wait...
I don't care how much you hate me.
My brother and I will fight with you.
Are you finished talking?
And, my brother has come up with a plan...
to attack Duo Geduo.
I've heard it. I don't agree with him.
Let's go.
Why is she always like this?
Because she is Fei Hongjin.
Forget it. We can practice ourselves.
Yunchong, let's practice.
Wind-blowing and cloud-cutting.
Again!
Yunchong, take this.
Brother.
Watch behind you.
That's good.
Why are they stuck together?
I didn't expect...
these two swords to act like this when they meet.
I can't move it.
These two are great swords.
When they meet each other,
anything could happen.
It was unpredictable.
I remember when...
my master gave this sword to me,
he said that The Dragon Sword is the best sword in the world.
I never thought The Transience Sword was not included in his words.
It seems that...
Master has given you a sword to equal mine.
Is this because my master was worried?
No, brother, he is not like that.
No, it is like that.
He didn't trust me!
I'm so stupid.
I shouldn't think like that.
But I really want to know...
If we take our swords and use the unique skill, "The Returning Dragon"...
then what would happen?
Brother.
You don't want to know?
Brother.
These two swords cannot fight each other again.
Or else, both of them would be damaged.
How do you know that both of them would be damaged?
Did Master say something to you?
Let's go.
Brother...
You taught me my skills.
Our master never taught us to fight each other.
If you really want this sword,
then take it.
Yunchong, I believe you.
Come on. I'll get you out.
You'll have to help yourself from here on.
Be careful.
Old man.
The princess.
Thank you.
Princess. Don't worry.
We'll get on it quickly.
Go quickly. It's late now.
Princess. - Don't.
I will never forget...
what you've done for me.
Take care.
Send Yang Yunchong my regards.
Go quickly.
Ailike.
Take this and aim at me.
Then pull this trigger here.
You're crazy.
It will kill you.
Leader, this... this is a gun.
I know. I don't need you to tell me.
That vest you're wearing,
is just made of grass, isn't it?
This is "Impenetrable Grass".
You expect me to believe it's "Impenetrable Grass"?
Don't risk your own life. - Shut up.
No way!
Take this!
Fei Hongjin, are you sure it's all right?
Aim well. There's not a lot of gunpowder in it.
Brother...
She may be crazy but you don't have to be.
Don't worry.
Fei Hongjin. Fei Hongjin.
Fei Hongjin.
Ailike.
Have clothes like this made for everyone.
I'm afraid that we don't have enough time.
Try your best.
All right. Come with me.
Miss.
Spring.
Let me take a look at you.
Have you recovered yet?
Yes, completely!
You are still so smart.
I don't have to worry anymore.
Report.
What is it?
Princess. They are taming the horses.
His Highness wants to see you.
Miss. If you don't want to go,
I can go to tell him.
No need. I'll go.
Miss.
Don't be so capricious.
Although I'm not interested in taming horses,
I still want to pay him back.
Tell the prince that I will be there very soon.
Yes.
I have never seen a horse...
that is so hard to tame.
No matter how hard to tame,
every horse can still be tamed.
What are you laughing about?
Minghui, don't you know that...
the most enjoyable thing about taming a horse,
is the last bit of wildness that the horse has before it is tamed.
Your words...
make me feel dreadful.
Good.
What is it?
The old soldier...
what did they do to him?
I hate people who betray their friends.
But there are rewards for telling.
This woman is a fugitive.
She should be executed according to the law.
This was my fault.
You should punish me.
Please let her go.
Minghui. You...
Your Highness. I beg you.
Minghui. Don't be like that.
Get up.
It was our ancestors that set the law.
And I am a soldier. I cannot disregard the law.
All I can do...
is to give her a chance.
Thank you, Your Highness.
We're facing...
some very experienced soldiers.
Listen carefully.
No matter who stands against the Eagles of the Desert,
we will not be defeated.
Let's go! - Yes!
Let her ride the horse.
If she can dodge my arrow,
then I will spare her life.
Hey... Minghui. Minghui.
Qiu Dongluo!
You... You are outrageous!
Your Highness. I know you are kind hearted.
But we could not release this prisoner.
I am willing to take responsibility.
Minghui. Minghui.
Minghui.
What is it?
It's strange. This rope is broken.
What's so strange about that?
I have a bad feeling about this.
What kind of bad feeling? You are just tired.
I'll sew it for you in a while.
Let's go.
Your Highness. Princess has awakened.
Get her a cup of ginseng tea quickly.
Yes.
Minghui.
Leave me! I don't want to see you.
Minghui...
You should know that it wasn't my intention to kill Man Ningna.
It was Qiu Dongluo's idea.
I have already punished him.
Today, seeing you like this,
Is very difficult for me.
I am willing to protect you my whole life.
Marry me.
I won't marry you.
I will do anything for you.
But if I asked you to,
could you swear to never kill again?
Can you do it?
I promise.
But you have to give me a year.
After one year, I will ask the government...
to let me leave the battlefield once and for all.
I won't have to kill anyone again.
If I can do that,
will you marry me?
I don't want any more bloodshed.
I have to go back to stop my father and Prince Yu.
You should go back too.
Go back to Fei Hongjin.
Try to think of a way to stop her.
After one year,
you will become my lucky star.
The military camp is here.
We have to stop here.
Or else we will be seen.
You should stay here.
Fei Hongjin.
The plan that I spoke of...
don't you think you should reconsider it?
No need.
We have a plan already.
But your plan...
will only break Duo Geduo defences.
It cannot guarantee victory.
Listen to me.
As long as we kill Duo Geduo,
our enemy will lose spirit and disperse.
If our plan is successful,
then I can promise that the soldiers will all leave.
All right. Go on.
Leader. Don't believe him!
Don't believe him!
Maga. What happened to you?
We thought that you were dead.
Leader. I was really injured back then.
The soldiers thought I was dead.
Good. I'll let you go.
He is in cahoots with Duo Geduo.
Leader. I have said this before.
We all know that.
That was Duo Geduo's plan to sow mistrust between us.
Can you explain it?
Explain what?
You don't believe me?
Whether you believe me or not,
I know that I am innocent.
I don't need to convince anybody.
It doesn't matter if I believe you or not.
I don't agree to your plan anyway.
All right.
I'll decapitate Duo Geduo...
and prove it to you.
Brother. Brother.
You don't believe me.
Just you wait.
I will definitely bring his head back here.
Brother. Brother.
Man Ningna.
So you want to take away her corpse...
Better kneel down to me quickly.
In your dreams!
Today, I will take your head.
Or the prince will think that...
I'm wasting his money.
Man Ningna.
