Seeing the Dragon Baton is like seeing the king.
Who dares to stop me?
The Majesty is asleep.
The Baton beats the fatuous king and officials.
Your Majesty, please punish Pan Ren Mei.
Your Majesty... Your Majesty...
Your Majesty,
Yang Wu Lang is holding the Dragon Baton...
and kneeling outside the hall...
shouting.
What is he shouting?
He said...
He said... Say it.
Say it.
He wants Your Majesty...
to punish Prime Minister Pan at once.
I have to check it out.
Your Majesty,
Princess Pan fainted suddenly.
What?
Prime Minister asks Your Majesty to go there.
The Majesty has come.
Your Majesty...
Get up.
I...
Alright, no need to get up.
Your Majesty, thank you.
What happened to Princess Pan?
Congratulations, Your Majesty.
From Princess Pan's pulse,
she's pregnant.
She's pregnant.
Congratulate you for having a son, Your Majesty.
Have you checked it thoroughly?
Your Majesty,
I've checked Princess's pulse for 3 times,
she's really pregnant.
Imperial doctor, please...
prescribe some nourishing medicine for her.
Yes, Your Majesty. I'm leaving then.
I'm bearing a son of Your Majesty.
It should be a happy thing.
Why do you look so sad, Your Majesty?
My silly girl,
how would The Majesty be sad?
Don't think too much.
Rest properly...
and bring Great Song a son.
Your Majesty will love you more.
That's really so great.
I'm honored by my daughter.
I'm lucky to have The Majesty as a son-in-law.
If I can have a grandson,
that will bring us closer to each other.
Whoever dares to hurt me...
would be like hurting The Majesty,
hurting the imperial family.
I believe The Majesty...
won't let such things happen.
What do you mean with that?
Your Majesty knows it so well.
In the battle of Golden Beach,
half of the Yang's forces died, hence weakened.
Even if Yang Wu Lang and Yang Liu Lang...
can pull themselves together again,
they can hardly change the situation.
Only my Pan's forces...
still remains powerful.
If you want to deal with the Liaos, except me,
you can't find another one.
Besides,
now Yang Wu Lang...
dares to shout in the palace.
It seems he's lost his mind.
If you want him to lead the troops,
it won't be easy.
Maybe The Majesty is kind.
But judging on the situation,
what is to choose and what's to give up,
I believe I don't need to say it explicitly.
Alright. Alright.
Stop talking those things that make him worry.
Your Majesty,
you stay in my room tonight...
and take a good rest.
Brother...
Let's go home.
Tell me.
Why does The Majesty refuse to see me?
Why?
Is our Yang's loyalty...
so worthless,
our father and brothers' blood wasted vainly?
Brother, go home with me first.
You let go of me.
I'll wait until The Majesty comes out.
At the face of all officials, I...
will denounce Pan Ren Mei.
Brother, why don't you understand?
You told me that...
to tell the world Pan Ren Mei's crimes,
we have to punish them with laws.
I'm now begging The Majesty...
to use the laws to punish him,
and bring justice to the Yangs.
Brother, it's useless for you to force him.
This won't work. That won't work either.
What should I do to revenge for dad?
You tell me.
Brother, we have to be patient.
I can't be patient anymore.
I'll beat Pan Ren Mei to death alive.
Are you crazy?
Take it as I'm crazy.
If you kill him now,
you're murdering an official.
Do you know it's a capital crime?
I'll take the consequence myself.
After killing him,
I'll kill myself at once.
I absolutely won't drag the Yangs into it.
Aren't you being selfish by doing this?
You can be relieved after death.
Have you thought about mom,
thought about Guan Hong,
thought about our feelings?
If You die,
who is going to re-establish the Yang's forces?
Who is going to re-develop Tian Bo House?
I don't care. I don't care.
You have to care about that.
Because you're the most valued son of dad.
Don't mention dad.
I'm not qualified to be his son.
I'm not qualified to be his son indeed.
I should have died in the battlefield.
Nonsense.
Do you know I could have saved them?
But I left them behind...
and let them die in the battlefield,
and I drag out an ignoble existence.
Now I feel worse than being dead.
Do you know I feel worse than being dead?
I know.
But do you know...
who witnessed eldest brother...
being humiliated to death?
It was me.
Who witnessed 2nd and 3rd brothers' bodies...
being pinned on the cart and dragged for miles?
It was me too.
And who witnessed 4th brother...
being completely poisoned and falling down...
the cliff but failed to find his body?
You said you weren't in the battlefield,
so you feel bad.
But I was in the battlefield...
witnessing my brothers being tortured to death.
But I couldn't do anything.
Would I be less sad than you?
You listen up.
Dad crashed himself at Li Ling Stele...
not for himself...
but for The Majesty,
for the whole nation.
5th brother,
you have to follow dad,
acting for general interest and being patient.
Do you understand?
What should I do?
Dad,
tell me what I should do.
Mom...
Mom, what's wrong?
Why do you become this?
Mom...
You've been through life and death with dad.
You've experienced all kinds of difficulties.
You can go through this for sure.
Don't you always tell us...
no matter what difficulty we encounter,
there's always a solution.
No matter what happened,
we must be tough?
You must be tough, mom.
She Sai Hua used to be a tough woman...
because behind her...
there were a few tough sons...
and a husband tougher than anyone else.
As long as I stayed with them,
I grew tough naturally.
Even if I encountered...
any great difficulties,
any sufferings,
when I thought of them,
I could overcome anything.
But now...
Mom...
I just want to be an ordinary woman...
buying food and cooking, cleaning the house...
and waiting for my husband to come home,
watching my kids...
grow up to be adults,
having the whole family sit together...
and chat and talk about our secrets,
enjoying the most enjoyable family life.
Mom...
You still have me, Ba Mei...
and 5th brother.
I really miss them so much.
I hate myself so much.
I really hate myself so much.
I knew well it's so dangerous for them to go.
I didn't want them to go.
But I didn't do anything to stop them.
I pretended nothing was going to happen.
I saw them off myself.
It was like...
I sent them to death personally.
I'm so useless. I'm really so useless.
Mom... Mom, it's not your fault.
Don't act like that.
Lf...
if dad saw what you're like right now,
he must be very sad.
Your dad promised me...
he'd surely come home.
He promised to travel around the world with me,
go to the end of the world with me.
Mom...
Dad,
can you tell Liu Lang...
what exactly he should do?
Liu Lang...
Princess...
Is there anything I can do to help?
From now on, for the Yang's business,
you don't need to worry about it.
What did you say?
You and me share everything with each other.
The Yang's business is my business.
It's different now.
We'd better break up.
What did you say?
Previously, the heavy duty of national defense...
was shouldered by my dad and brothers.
Now that they're gone,
I have to shoulder the responsibility.
I can't shirk my duty.
You have to understand...
Yang Liu Lang's life...
doesn't belong to me anymore.
I don't care what responsibility you shoulder.
I'll fight shoulder-to-shoulder with you,
shoulder everything with you.
Today, when I saw my mom and sister-in-laws,
I asked myself...
what's the ultimate happiness of a woman.
It's getting old with their beloved ones.
But I can't give you such happiness.
I don't want you to follow my sister-in-laws,
to worry about me everyday.
With my beloved one, I also don't want to...
separate with her alive or dead.
As I can't promise you anything,
it'd better for us to break up earlier.
Even if we can't get old together,
as long as I stick with you, I'm contended.
I'll feel happy.
Princess, you don't understand.
As you've never experienced...
the greatest sorrow of my sister-in-laws,
it's not too late for us to break up now.
This spear has once been hot and bright.
I'll make it glorious once again.
I promise you...
after returning from signing the peace treaty,
no matter if it's the end of the world,
as long as you want to go,
I'll go with you.
I won't make you wait at Tian Bo House alone.
Sai Hua...
Don't be sad.
I'm not dead.
That's impossible.
Am I dreaming?
Am I really dreaming?
You're not dreaming.
I'm not dead.
Your husband is home to see you.
Really?
Are you real?
You're really home.
Sai Hua...
Having you as my wife...
is the greatest luck in my life.
You know the principles. You're a heroine.
You're a national heroine.
You're no ordinary woman.
Didn't you say...
there's no family without a nation?
Just because of this utterance of yours,
I could resist the Liaos wholeheartedly,
and defend the nation and protect the people.
You never make me worry at home.
You never make me worry.
I need your support.
You must hang on bravely.
No way.
I can't live without you.
Without you,
I feel worse than death.
Sai Hua...
Trust me.
I didn't leave you.
I'm still alive.
I just can't be around you temporarily.
No way.
You can't go. You can't go.
Sai Hua,
I'm really not dead.
You have to trust me.
Yang Ye will be by your side forever.
The Yang's spirit will never exterminate.
Never be exterminated forever.
You must carry on.
Mom...
I've repaired dad's broken spear.
Yang Ye will be by my side forever.
The Yang's spirit will never be exterminated.
Your dad's blood is flowing in your body.
His life...
will carry on in you.
For his unfinished missions,
let's us finish them for him.
Alright.
For dad's unfinished jobs,
let's us finish them.
Madam... 6th young master...
Li Gong Gong asks to see you.
Madam Yang... General Yang...
I'm here to deliver The Majesty's message.
He summons Yang Wu Lang and Yang Liu Lang.
Your Majesty...
Yang Wu Lang... Yang Liu Lang...
The Majesty summons you secretly for...
a heart-to-heart talk.
I want to talk with you properly.
Your Majesty, if you have any hearty talks,
you should find those of your...
beloved trustworthy men.
We the Yangs aren't qualified for that.
Once...
I took off my imperial gown at Tai Temple...
to let your father whip at it.
At them time, I really regretted my misdeeds.
I swore to make our country strong...
and work for the well-beings of the people,
be a respectable king to the god...
and to the people the same.
I also gave you the Yang's the Dragon Baton,
and 8th Prince the Gold Whip.
The purpose was that I hoped you could...
supervise and assist me.
I really wanted to be a good king sincerely.
I didn't know I was so stupid...
to believe the backbite of Pan Ren Mei...
which led to today's situation.
I owe Commander Yang.
I owe all the people in the world.
I'm not qualified to be a king.
If Your Majesty really regret,
you'd dispel chaos and restore peace at once,
kill Pan Ren Mei,
and have his crime announced to the world...
so as to condole my dad and brothers' souls.
When I knew Commander Yang...
used his life...
to show his innocence,
I suddenly realized who the mean character was.
But it was too late already.
All the good and faithful officials are gone.
The imperial power...
has all fallen into Pan Ren Mei's hands.
It's not that I don't want to rid the bad guy,
but I can't help.
You created all these yourself, Your Majesty.
I admit it.
But I want to tell you now...
if I want to dispel the chaos and restore peace,
and restore the order of the court,
the only one I can count on now...
is you the Yangs.
I hereby sincerely ask you generals...
to help me...
rid the traitorous gang and save the nation.
I'm afraid Your Majesty...
may change your mind again.
5th brother sounds right.
Your Majesty,
we the Yangs...
have been with one heart and one mind with you.
But we end up with miseries.
I'm afraid this time...
Your Majesty will change your mind again.
I know...
I got your father killed.
It's reasonable that you don't trust me.
But there's one point, I hope...
you would consider the interest of the nation.
To relieve your hatred,
to show my determination,
I request you generals to beat me...
if you will promise to save Song.
Your Majesty,
is it necessary?
I Zhao Guang Yi...
should be condemned by the ancestors,
should be condemned by the people.
In my dreams, I also feel ashamed. I can't...
distinguish right and wrong. I'm no good king.
Generals, please do it.
For your dad,
please do it.
Your Majesty,
my dad's sacrificing his life...
was not for his own reputation...
but for waking Your Majesty.
You should distinguish good and bad deeds,
distinguish the faithful and unfaith officials.
Who's the traitorous officials,
don't be covered up by the traitors.
Don't waste the beautiful great country.
If Your Majesty really repents sincerely,
though my dad is dead, his death is worthy.
We the Yangs see serving the nation as our duty.
For all personal life and death, fame, profits,
sacrifice and insults,
we don't give a damn to it.
Good.
As long as you the loyal Yangs are there,
there's hope in Song.
Your Majesty,
as long as we work together,
we can find a way to deal with Pan Ren Mei...
and rid the traitorous gang and restore order.
Good.
So The Majesty...
has already known Pan Ren Mei's ill intention.
He wants to get rid of him.
It's a lucky thing for Song.
Dad's sacrifice is worthy.
The old bastard Pan Ren Mei...
He surely doesn't know The Majesty pretends...
to be fatuous but is clear-minded indeed.
He's discovered his ill ambition already.
I don't care what The Majesty thinks.
I must kill Pan Ren Mei the old bastard.
5th brother, though we know...
Pan Ren Mei colludes with the Liaos...
and wants to seize the throne, he...
makes every move only after mature deliberation.
He won't easily show any loopholes.
On top of that, with his power in the court,
the 3 armed services are under his control.
If we want to get rid of him, it's no easy job.
So we must be extremely careful in our moves...
so as not to alert him.
How could we make him...
walk right into the trap himself?
Pan Ren Mei made an imperial gown secretly.
He casts a greedy eye on the throne.
If we can make him feel the throne is reachable,
he'll definitely grab the chance.
Then...
he'll unmask his own ill intention.
But how could we make him feel...
he could take advantage of the situation.
Pan Ren Mei is our internal revolt.
The Liaos and Tian Ling are external invasion.
We have to rid the internal revolt...
while resisting external invasion.
That's a long term plan.
5th brother is right.
I've been thinking about this.
Though Pan Ren Mei gets hold of the army,
if he wants to get the throne,
he must need the help of the Liaos.
We can take this chance to...
lure the Liaos into our territory and rid them.
Liu Lang,
what you meant is...
flow with the trend and invite them to the trap.
Back then, the Liaos...
lured us the Yang's forces to Golden Beach.
They attacked us at both sides...
and stormed us by surprise.
This time,
I'll pay them back...
with their own coin.
5th brother...
where do you think...
is the best battlefield for us?
In terms of landscape,
Youzhou at the border is the most suitable.
But I think it's here,
Bianjing City.
Right.
If Pan Ren Mei wants to gain the throne,
he'll invite the Liaos right to the capital.
Liu Lang,
if the battlefield...
is set at the capital, it's too risky.
After all, Pan Ren Mei gets hold of the army.
If anything goes wrong,
the result is beyond redemption.
8th Prince,
now the army of the capital...
is controlled by Pan Ren Mei.
He can take action anytime...
to harm The Majesty and the nation.
If he'll harm Song Dynasty anyway,
why don't we take initiative...
to lure the Liaos into the city.
It'll be beneficial to us on the contrary.
For one thing,
we can cut their backups as the journey is long.
Also, with such long journey, they'll be tired.
Their fighting capacity will surely be weakened.
For another thing,
it can kill the alertness of Pan Ren Mei.
For our cooperation in destroying...
the Liaos, it's a good chance.
Like father like son, you're really bold.
For complete safety,
we still need to deploy some troops back...
to ensure our outflank.
I'll go to the border to deploy the troops.
Good.
6th younger brother,
after the battle of Golden Beach,
you're really getting more mature.
You've shown your majestic style of a general.
We'll count on you to restore our prestige.
5th elder brother,
in terms of experience, I'm far less than you.
Don't be courteous.
No matter in terms of boldness or strategies,
you're now stronger than me.
Even if you're compared with dad,
you're no inferior to him.
5th elder brother,
don't make fun of me.
For this battle between Song and Liao,
it's a risky play after all.
We can't afford any mistakes.
We can't afford failure.
That's right.
Luring the Liaos to attack Bianjing...
is really dangerous.
But it's the fastest and most effective way.
5th elder brother, let's not delay it.
You take care of the deployment of the troops.
Don't worry.
At the border and the 16 states of Yan Yuan,
most of the troops are dad's old connections.
Added to it the written decree of The Majesty,
they'll follow my deployment.
But you...
are acting under old bastard Pan's eyes,
you must be extremely careful with everything.
Alright.
I'll go prepare for it. You take care.
The Majesty has arrived.
Your Majesty...
What's wrong with my beloved Princess?
Your Majesty, I feel a great pain at heart.
I really can't stand it.
Get the imperial doctor quickly. Sit down.
The imperial doctor has come...
and prescribed.
Then hurry up and take the medicine.
The imperial doctor said...
the medicine may affect the baby.
Even if I have to suffer more pain,
I'll have Your Majesty's son born.
Darling...
Your Majesty,
for what I'm doing now,
it's for redeeming the crime my dad committed.
My dad can't forget my brother's death.
So he was muddle-headed at that time...
and jeopardized the Yang's warriors.
Your Majesty,
it's really my dad's fault.
He knows it's his fault too.
But he doesn't know what to do.
So he begs me to...
apologize to Your Majesty and the Yangs for him.
Princess...
Your Majesty...
I know Your Majesty...
Ioves me very much.
But it's really my dad's fault.
If Your Majesty forgives my dad,
it'll be unfair to the Yangs.
As a daughter, I dare not harbor him.
So if Your Majesty wants to punish my dad,
I dare not to say anything.
Princess...
Alright. Alright...
Let's leave it for the time being.
I'll bring you to bed.
Your Majesty...
Even if you kill my dad,
you can't bring Commander Yang back to life.
Besides, I'm now pregnant.
My dad is the baby's grandfather.
His blood will be flowing in my baby too.
Your Majesty,
even the saints make mistakes at times.
Give him a chance.
I think, for the Song's nation,
he'll try his best.
Your Majesty, for the baby in me,
please forgive him.
Alright. Alright. Stop talking about it.
You have to take care.
The baby is of utmost importance.
Your Majesty...
Take a good rest first.
Come on, summon the imperial doctor.
Yes, Your Majesty.
Your Majesty...
You must forgive my dad.
I beg you...
Please forgive my dad, Your Majesty.
From now on,
you're not only my good daughter-in-laws,
but also my good daughters.
Yang Ye hasn't died.
Your husbands haven't died.
If you still love your husbands,
from now on,
you should turn your sorrow and anger...
into missing and strength.
Practise hard the Yang's spear stances.
We'll show the Liaos...
the Yang's father and son's spirit reappears.
It'll make the flee upon hearing the news.
Wu Liang...
Mom...
I'm sorry.
For what happened in the past,
we can by no means change it.
But I hope you can bear in mind...
you're always my good daughter-in-law.
Mom...
Stop crying.
Come with me...
Come with me to the battlefield, will you?
