My mother would never lie to me.
I won't kill you.
I have a son!
I, Duan Yan Qing, am human,
just like you are!
Mother!
Young Master!
Duan Lang
Brother Duan! Duan Lang
What's wrong with you?
Sir

Please tell me!
Sir

Mother! Sir
Mother!

Don't come any closer,

Move another inch,
and I'll kill her!
I'll be going now!
Young Master!
Duan Lang Brother Duan
Young Master!
Brother Xu Zhu,
I can see!
Brother Xu Zhu,
I can see!
After 2 months
With the passing of the Empress Dowager of Sung,
control of the kingdom fell to Zhao Chi,
He fired important ministers and
began making plans to attack Liao.
In China, everybody was preparing for the war
Men,
There are no beasts like lions and tigers here.
Today has been unsatisfactory.
Let's just go.
We'll be there once we get past this grassland!
These people from the South are getting bolder each day.
They trespass on Liao soil
and move without any fear at all.
Men,
Can we kill these people today?
My liege,
we can't kill people as we wish!
It's rare for us brothers to meet,
so let's make an exception,
shall we?
Right on time!
My liege!
All the ones left are for you.
I came here today to see my brother's prowess in archery.
These people are innocent!
My liege,
why don't we just let them go?
There are too many Southerners around.
We have to kill them
to maintain peace in our kingdom.
If they choose to trespass on our land.
They must pay the price
Long live the King!
Protect the King!
Purple!
My liege,
I've taken your arrows
please forgive me!
Excellent martial arts!
Brother-in-law,
did you come to welcome me personally?
Purple,
your eyes are cured!
Your brother helped treat them.
Isn't it great?
Powerful maiden,
you're formidable indeed!
I'd like to reward you!
My liege, you've made my Brother-in-Law a high-ranking official,
I too would like to be an official,
but I don't need a very high-ranking one.
Just don't give me one that's too lowly
or everyone else will look down on me.
In Liao, there are only women who work.
There's no such thing as a female official.
Why don't we do this.
You are now the sister of the Princess ' husband.
So I'll give you the title of Princess,
and call you the Princess of Pin Nan
I don't want to be a princess!
Why not?
You and my brother are sworn brothers.
If I become a princess,
doesn't that mean I am your child,
and one generation lower than you?
Princess, you'll be the highest ranking princess around!
You'll have the same status as my brother,
and not the same status as my child.
So I won't just be calling you the Princess of Pin Nan,
but I'll also solve
your problem for you.
What problem would that be?
How would you know what my problem is?
You're a ruler,
so you must keep your promises!
If you don't want to be the Princess of Pin Nan,
then I won't force you to be.
One, two, three,
so what will it be?
Purple thanks the King for his generosity.
Thank you, my liege.
Let's go and talk over there for a little while.
Alright.
You look unhappy.
That means something's troubling you.
I have everything in the world!
There's nothing
I can't do for you!
I won't hide my problems from you any longer.
I'll tell you the worst mistake I've ever made in my life.
Purple's sister is called Scarlet.
I will never be able to
redeem myself of this sin.
No wonder you refuse to get married!
You can't forget Purple's sister!
Brother
It is the fault of the Hans
and the Beggar Clan in particular,
that caused you to commit such a grave sin.
It's all because they never repaid your kindness.
Don't you worry.
I will raise an army
and kill everyone
in the Beggar Clan
to avenge your mother's death at the Yan Gate,
and your hatred towards those who opposed you at the Zu Sian Residence.
Brother
I will bring back
any woman you like.
My liege,
I killed Scarlet by accident.
I will not marry again.
Scarlet is Scarlet.
There will never be anyone like her
in the whole wide world.
There's no woman on this earth
that can be compared to her.
That can be compared to her.
I thank you for your kindness.
But I know longer feel any animosity
towards the warriors of China.
I've already killed so many people,
isn't it time my vengeance was ended?
Anyway, this would cause a long, painful war.
The Sung people are soft and only good at deception.
They are not built for war.
You,
on the other hand, are a great war leader.
You'll overrun them in no time.
What war would you cause?
Do you know
why I've come?
My liege, please tell me.
I came here to promote you!
I'm here to issue this decree.
My liege,
I'm satisfied with my position,
there's no need...
Siew Fung, King of Nan Yuan, here my decree;
My liege!
Siew Fung, King of Nan Yuan
you have served the kingdom well.
You are hereby promoted to the King of Sung
and will become the General of Pin Nan, and lead three armed battalions.
Yes!
I cannot accept your decree!
Why?
You dare go against my orders?
Siew Fung thanks the King.
That's what I want to hear, my good brother.
Brother
I've journeyed to the south this time
to visit Bian Ling.
My liege, you want to go to Bian Liang?
So...
as the General of Pin Nan leading three armed battalions,
you'll go ahead first.
Let's head for Bian Liang.
As the King of Sung, your new residence
will be at the Zhao Chi Palace.
If that's the case, this means that
my liege wishes to wage war against Nan Chao!
It's not that I want to wage war against Nan Chao;
it's they who seek to oppose me!
For generations we've
sought to conquer Nan Chao.
But we've never succeeded.
Today is a good day;
I feel that victory is finally in my grasp!
My beloved brother,
our names will echo for eternity!
My liege,
I must beg a favour of you.
What would you ask of me?
I will give you everything you need.
I beg you,
for the sake of the citizens of Sung and Liao,
please reconsider your intention of attacking Nan Chao.
I'm nothing but a wanderer.
I wouldn't gain anything
even if I attacked Nan Chao.
Anyway,
not all wars end in victory.
If we fail,
this will ruin my liege's reputation.
I have made my decision.
Speak no more of it.
War is important for the progress of a nation.
I still hope that you would reconsider.
If my liege must attack Nan Chao,
then I ask that another general be sent in my stead.
If I were to lead the army,
this war may not happen.
In your heart,
is Nan Chao more important than Liao?
You would swear loyalty
to Nan Chao over Liao?
My liege, please don't misunderstand.
Siew Fung will forever be loyal to Liao.
If Liao is ever in trouble,
you can be sure I will be on the side of Liao,
even if it means sacrificing my life.
Zhao Chi has already decided to oppose me.
Like they say,
those who start the battle, win the battle.
If we don't attack first,
our kingdom may fall.
You say you'd do anything for our kingdom,
but now that I'm asking you to lead our armies, you refuse.
I have killed too many people.
I can't bring myself to kill again.
Please let me resign from my position
and allow me to spend the rest of my life in the forest.
We each have our own opinions.
It's difficult to reach a compromise now.
Please think about it first.
I do hope that you will aid me.
Yes.
Brother-in-Law
What's going on?
Are you unhappy because I've come back?
No, there's something else bothering me.
Purple, now that you're back,
I'm truly happy.
It looks like
you're the only one I'll miss.
You're the only one I'll miss.
I'm always worried that you'll get yourself into trouble,
now it's great that you're back.
And have regained your sight as well.
Now I no longer have to worry about you.
Brother-in-Law, look!
I haven't just regained my sight,
but I've been bestowed the title of Princess by the King as well.
Aren't you happy?
Even if you weren't a Princess,
you'd still be the Purple I know.
Right...
Today, I was promoted as well.
I'm now the General of Pin Nan.
I will lead my armies to invade Nan Chao.
I know that
in your heart,
I cannot compare to her.
Ten thousand living Purples
cannot even match one dead Scarlet.
Only when I die
will you ever miss me.
If I knew this would happen
I wouldn't have come so far
to see you.
Purple, you're still so young.
It's difficult for you to comprehend adult matters such as this.
What do you mean I'm so young?
I'm not a child anymore!
My sister asked you to take care of me,
but you've only taken care of my needs.
You've never cared for me.
You have no idea
what's in my heart.
When I was blind,
I knew
you would never be able to accept a blind person,
so I never tried to get close to you.
But now that I can see again,
you still don't care about me.
What did Scarlet have that I don't?
I'm just not as smart
or pretty as her!
But she's dead now,
and yet you still miss her so much.
I hope that one day,
you will beat me to death as well.
Maybe then
you'll miss me like you miss Scarlet.
I'm not a child anymore!
On that stormy night at the Green Stone Bridge,
I saw with my own eyes
how you killed my sister.
You were so sad and your sorrow was overwhelming
At that time, I thought
it's alright if you caused Scarlet's death,
because you still had me.
I'm no different from Scarlet,
my feelings for you are true.
From that time on, I decided that I would
follow you for the rest of my life.
Don't bring up the past.
This is not something in the past.
In my heart,
it feels like it just happened yesterday.
Purple,
I can only care for you as a brother.
In my heart, there will only ever be one woman.
That woman is your sister.
No one will ever be able
to replace Scarlet.
I only took care of you because Scarlet asked me to.
Brother-in-Law, I was wrong.
Please just hit me or something!
Purple,
don't be childish.
This isn't that serious.
Purple,
why do you look so miserable?
Why do you look so miserable?
Is it because I'm coarse and unrefined,
and that makes you
unhappy being with me?
Do I really look miserable?
This is all that ugly guy's fault.
Ugly guy?
My eyes belong to him.
That guy with the iron mask.
Do you know who the leader of the Beggar Clan, Leader Zhong Zu Sian, really is?
He is You Tan Zi, the guy in the iron mask.
So it's him!
No wonder he has so many scars on his face.
Is he really You Tan Zi?
I don't know where he learned
such strange martial arts.
He was always by my side, and took care of me.
I can't believe I was fooled by him.
I didn't have anyone to rely on when I was blind,
so I relied only on Mister Zhong,
and asked for him very often.
Now that I think of it, I feel so embarrassed.
You're just terrible,
torturing a person like that.
It must have been difficult for him to forget his revenge
and instead take care of you like that.
What's so difficult about that?
The only reason why he cared so much for me
was so that I would marry him.
Purple,
did you take your anger out on him and kill him?
Is that how you got your eyes?
No, I didn't kill him.
He willingly gave his eyes to me.
Why would he do a thing like that?
Because he was stupid, of course.
He took a sharp blade and went looking for Xu Zhu.
It must have been Xu Zhu who took his eyes for me.
But Xu Zhu wouldn't have done that!
He said that if Xu Zhu didn't do it, he would kill himself.
So he had no other choice.
Xu Zhu transferred his eyes to me.
You Tan Zi
really willingly gave up his eyes for you?
You'd never refuse if someone offered, would you?
Brother-in-Law,
if you became blind one day,
I would also willingly sacrifice my eyes and give them to you.
Purple,
Mister You
treated you so sincerely,
but you've never appreciated him.
Where is he now?
He should be at the Vulture Peak headquarters.
He's blind now.
How would he be able to walk
such a difficult road?
Fine,
let's hope my brother
can treat his eyes as well.
That's not possible.
That monk,
who is your Second Brother,
he said
that my eyes were exposed to Ding Chun Chiu's poison
and that's what blinded me.
But my nerves were intact, so my eyes could be replaced.
But that ugly guy,
his nerves are damaged, and he will never get his sight back.
Purple, hurry and return to his side!
Never leave him ever again!
No, I want to be with you!
I feel like vomiting every time I see his ugly face.
How can I stay with him for the rest of my life?
Even though he is ugly,
but he's got a good heart.
I don't need you to stay with me.
I don't ever want to see you again.
Brother-in-Law!
Sir,
the King requests an audience with the Princess of Pin Nan.
Who?
Why? My liege,
Master Siew has left my liege's reward
on the floor.
He's also wrapped the royal seal and hung it from the ceiling of his residence.
It seems
he intends to leave us.
He dares oppose me!
Does he even still see me as his King?
Get me my general!
Yes, my liege!
Lead your armies
and form a blockade around the Nan Yuan residence.
Send an order to the gatekeepers in the city,
and ask them not to let anyone in or out.
Gather all our forces from around the area
to support our troops at the Nan Yuan residence.
Yes!
The Princess of Pin Nan is here to see you, my liege.
Ask her to come in.
I don't want to be the Princess of Pin Nan any longer.
Bestowing a title is a serious matter.
It's not something you can play around with.
You have no choice!
Everything's so confusing now!
I give up.
If you don't want to be the Princess of Pin Nan,
then I'll just have to bestow the title of Pin Nan Concubine on you.
How's that?
Siew Fung doesn't want to be the General of Pin Nan
now you don't want to be the Princess of Pin Nan either.
Yes.
You're from the south.
You're unhappy that I'm attacking Nan Chao as well?
I don't care if you want to attack them or not.
Whether you attack the north or the east,
I don't care.
It's just that, my Brother-in-Law
wants me to marry a blind man.
Why?
My Brother-in-Law doesn't like me.
He wants me to marry someone else.
I have plenty of women in my palace,
each lovelier than the next.
But I only like Concubine Mu.
Do you know why?
Why?
Actually, I've never known for certain.
But now I do.
There's an old monk at Sheng De Temple.
Concubine Mu visits him very often.
It seems that the reason I like Concubine Mu
is because of that old monk.
What has you liking Concubine Mu
got anything to do with that old monk?
She accidentally told me the other day.
I was pestering her, so she told me.
What did the monk do?
It seems Concubine Mu asked the old monk
to give her two bottles of holy water.
She made me drink the water without me knowing it.
It seems that if a woman gives a man holy water to drink,
that man will love her, and only her
for the rest of his life.
I've already drank a bottle.
I kept the remaining bottle
just to see if I could make that woman
like me or not.
I'm greedy, aren't I?
My liege,
can you let me see this bottle of holy water?
You're my sister,
of course I'll let you see it!
It's smells so good!
My liege, Concubine Mu secretly fed you this holy water,
so doesn't it mean she tried to deceive you?
Aren't you mad?
Now, I can't help but dote on her,
Even I was deceived,
I'm not mad at her at all.
So its seems this holy water really does work!
Are you going to give it to your brother-in-law to drink?
Me?
But your brother-in-law is my brother as well.
I must respect his wishes.
I can't give you this bottle.
My liege, there's an emergency at the front line!
You...
Purple, you better get back first.
We must leave this place as fast as we can.
Brother-in-Law, the gates are heavily guarded.
Aren't you supposed to be leading the armies to war?
Those soldiers are no longer in my command.
The King is suspicious of me
and has asked his soldiers to capture me.
Why?
I refused to lead his troops to invade Nan Chao.
That's alright.
We haven't fought for a long time.
Afterwards, when we make our escape,
let's just kill all of them.
The King has treated me well.
He has made me the King of Nan Yuan,
and has just recently promoted me again.
If I injure his followers,
I will be the laughing stock of the martial world.
They will say I'm dishonourable for not repaying his kindness.
Purple, let's just leave this place quietly.
We'll just go and make sure they won't find us
for the rest of our lives.
Where should we go?
I know.
The Vulture Peak headquarters on Misty Mountain.
Let's go!
I don't want to see that ugly guy.
Purple,
let's discuss this again after we get out of here.
Ok?
Come on.
Brother-in-Law
I'll have to pack some clothes
if we're leaving.
Purple, are you ready now?
Yes.
Brother-in-Law,
drink this wine. It will keep your spirits up.
We may never
come back this way again.
Come.
Brother-in-Law, where should we go?
They'll think we're moving to the south.
After we leave the city,
we'll head north instead.
Come on!
Master Siew,
the King requests your audience at his palace.
All of you, please forgive me.
Please tell the King,
that I'm guilty
for not having the courage to face him.
I will not forget all the things
he has done for me.
Purple, come on!
Purple, we will never come back here again.
Come on!
Brother-in-Law,
what's wrong?
Brother-in-Law, what's wrong?
I've been poisoned!
I have to use my inner-force to eliminate the poison from my body.
Brother-in-Law, are you feeling better?
Brother-in-Law!
Purple, you go on ahead.
I don't think I'll be able to go with you.
Brother-in-Law, this is all my fault!
I was the one who poisoned you!
Why did you poison me?
No,
the King tricked me into doing it.
He gave me a bottle of holy water.
He said that if you drank the holy water,
you would love me for the rest of my life
