Military orders as urgent as falling sparks
Thoughts were also never stationed
Chaos hasn't been pacified, how can home be thought of?
This leave, the outcome isn't decided
Lonely army always spurring the horse on under Qilian Mountains
Once the horse is mounted, the cost may be their life
Let my arms become your city wall
If I fall, we can also promise to meet in Heaven
Just let the upwind ambition air-dry its last teardrop
Dive directly into the front line of life and death
Let my arms become your city wall
If I fall, then we'll meet in Heaven
Because I know you are also looking at the moon
Waiting for me to go back and become
the city wall that protects you
Sound of the Desert Episode 4
Sister,
Let's leave
Let's go.
Leave, where will we go?
I had just got here
We shouldn't even came in the first place
Since the beginning, Madam Yue did not like you
She purposely tried to embarrass you in front of everyone
It's so you can give up
We can't leave
Why
I've never seen someone
With such mysterious intent
Such brilliant strategies
Based on her creation of Hua Yue Nong
It shows she has high intentions
She is someone I'm looking for
It was worth us trying so hard to get here
Only she can grant me my wishes
You really think she'll help you?
This Master of Luo Yu fang
not only is she smart
but she's courageous
observant and strategic
This is her best feature
As long as she's willing
She can overcome any obstacle
Earlier, she was indeed suspicious of us
But don't worry
Before long, she'll be our ally
You really want to do this?
You'd give up everything
and try to gain rank like her?
Dont try to convince me
I've made my decision
The Hua Yue Nong play
really is brilliant beyond words
I believe what'll happen off-stage will be even better than the play
Everything has been set in motion
We just need to wait
Hong Yu House
The performance is about to begin, please wait patiently
Take a look
This is the crowd's gifts
They really like your performance
Some young men want to see you
I dont want to see them
I just need to sing well
dance well
I will not see anyone
You have become so popular
You're even better than Shuang Shuang
If you don't want to see anyone then don't
If they want to see our Sister Ding Ling,
Then they must come see our once a day show!
Good news good news!
Master!
Today's tickets for Luo Yu Fang are all sold out!
Even the next two day's are all sold out
I said early on
Aside from tips from customers
We will determine everyone's role within the play at month end
You'll be paid based on the importance of your role
This is great! Thank you!
This is the results of everyone's hard work. Keep at it!
Good!
Master master!
Master, a VIP has come
A VIP?
Welcome mister to our Luo Yu Fang
Let me first introduce our stage's order to you okay?
-This way is--Where is your master?
Our Master will be here soon
Young Lord, we have prepared a room for you upstairs
Please come this way
That Lord Wei would come to Luo Yu Fang
What a wonderful presence we have here
You've finally left your wolf pack for Jian An city?
If you've come why didn't you come see me?
How is Master Wei's spice business?
Miss me?
Lord Wei, please go to the room to admire the song and dance
-Okay-Master, Aunt Hong!
Xin Yan
Even if there's an emergency, you must remember appearances
What is it?
Wu Ye is here
He brought along a very respectable and good looking person
Wu Ye calls him Jiu Ye
They're all here
I have some urgent business, please excuse me Master Wei
Aunt Hong, please seat Master Wei
Yes.
Master Wei, please
Jiu Ye.
Why don't send someone ahead of time, I can prepare carefully
I got curious
I want to find out exactly what you've been up to
Last night, you didn't come home again
Brother Shi, Xiao Feng.
Please go up using these stairs
Go ahead
-Yes-Yes
This is
This is built for you
For safety, we didn't want to build it too large
What smell is this
It's the scent of herbal medicine
This is
Licorice
Jiu Ye smells of herbal medicine
We're here
Jiu Ye, I borrowed a love story for this performance
Excuse me, Jiu Ye
Madam Yue, come here
Madam Yue, go assist Aunt Hong
You gave her a lot of trouble
Aren't you going to take care of it?
This is not right
Xin Yue,
Please go if you're busy
Yes.
Xiao Feng,
What is it?
Take good care of Jiu Ye for me
Don't worry, Sister Yue
you've got me here.
Please
I really can't stand Maser Wei's ice cold face
The minute he came, I feel like I've went back to the darkest winter day
But poor me only has this springtime outfit
Aunt Hong can still make jokes
Looks like it's nothing then
Nothing, but if we keep going it'll become something
Good, good, good!
Please you two, this way.
With me here, what can happen?
Rare guests, rare guests.
Even you guys came to watch
Aunt Hong,
this must be your new house master, Yue girl, right?
Thank you both for coming
Coming to check us out
Of course we're here for a good performance
Although I'm from Luo Yu Fang
But I want to see how what the excitement is
To see how big you've become
Thank you
These days we are quite busy
Full house every night
Hua Yue Nong is well received
Shuang Shuang, you are too short sighted
Left too early
Our Shuang Shuang doesn't care
She's very popular with us
Besides, flowers cannot blossom forever
If it can blossom every day
then it'll be really red (meaning play is a real hit)
Then please relax and enjoy this play
Alright, Shuang Shuang.
Let's go watch.
Leave well, watch it well.
So satisfying
Be prepared
Hua Yue Nong receiving attention
at the same time made many enemies
This I know
Go see your Cold-faced overlord
No loyalty
Master Wei's presence
Our Luo Yu Fang suddenly became colder
If the real General Wan is like this
Then he won't be killing the fierce tribes, they'll be killing him
But the Princess' dance routine is quite good
We can just ignore the rest
Also
I have a question for you
Please ask, Lord Wei.
You're not upset with me?
That time in the desert, I didn't give you my real identity
But you can still call me Xiao Wei
You believe I'm from the Southern Dynasty now?
I don't know
Your appearance was very suspicious
and you were very familiar with the desert landscape
You call yourself a citizen of the Southern Dynasty
But you do not know the land of the Southern Dynasty at all
Don't you think it'll be strange if I'm not even a little suspicious?
But I realized you indeed do not have evil intentions after traveling with you
But I had important business so it was not convenient to give you my real identity
Xin Yue,
Can you accept my explanation?
I am familiar with the desert because I grew up with wolves
We have the ability to never get lost in the desert
Even though you're from the Dynasty, you never lived in the main cities
Therefore, I'm unfamiliar with everything
But
Maybe I am from no where
My home is with the wolf pack
This is all I can share
Do you believe me?
I believe
Whatever you don't want to share
I believe you will one day share it with me while holding my hand
You really are a very overconfident and arrogant person
It's not arrogance
I have an ability
As long as I gave into the other person's eyes
I can read the other person's intentions
You've been in this city for over half a year.,
making a living off of song and dance.
If you know my identity, why not seek me out?
What if I had not come here?
When I wanted to find you, I didn't know where you were.
By he time I found out, I didn't think meeting you would make that much of a difference.
Then what is your goal in writing this play?
To enter the palace?
I had thought you were a desert miracle
Or do you want to become empress.
I'm doing fine right now, why would I want to seek out that kind of place?
Is it for her?
Her aspirations are innocent,
just want to take this chance
and help herself find a good destination,
or, at least to live comfortably.
I don't force others to do what I would refuse.
I also don't think she would be happy in that kind of place.
Then what exactly is this for?
The person I'm doing this for...is her.
The princess?
You say you were raised by wolves;
I think you meant foxes.
Pour me a glass of tea.
Why should I?
You should, because the princess will ask me
" Wu Ji ah,
have you seen that play at Luo yu fang?
It's called Hua Yue Nong
And I'm really not sure how to reply...
Mr. Wei, is there antyhing else you need? I will prepare it.
This play you've written, has been planned out carefully.
Every sentence has been scrutinized.
But you left me earlier without a second thought,
and went to welcome the Master of Shi House. Are you not afraid I would be angry?
He is my superior,
if my superior came, would i not go and welcome him?
Is that so?
Then you're saying I can't even compare to a superior.
Young Master, Aunt Hong requests an appearance.
Mister Wei, I'm sorry.
If there's something, just say it.
Yue Er.
Jiu Ye is angry.
He's scolding Lord Wu right now.
I know. I will go there immediately.
Alright.
I have to leave first.
Looks like you're not a petty person,
so don't intentionally make things hard for me anymore.
I have to go plead for forgiveness.
The situation is already miserable.
You're pretty bold as an employee.
Without the employer's consent, you dare to arrange a play based on the Royal family's personal affairs.
Do you need me to accompany you?
Don't be so hard on yourself.
If Shi Fang doesn't want you, my mansion wants you.
What happened?
I also don't know.
It's someone called Shi Feng who secretly told me.
Told me to hurry and find you,
also said something about Lord Wu is kneeling and replying
about the play.
Don't fear. Whatever happens, there's me.
You don't know Shi Fang's rules.
Back then, there was a person who went from riches to rags in one night.
In the end, starved to death.
And there are many other punishments that I don't know about.
The more I think about it, it gets scarier.
Even if something happens, it's me.
It isn't related to you all.
Let's hurry and enter.
You can't enter.
The play is about to end. You keep watch.
Don't let anything go wrong at this critical part,
it will further add trouble for Wu Ye.
Thank you.
You had better think about how to report to Jiu Ye.
Wu Ye, leave first.
Jin Yan will tell you what will happen to you.
I am an orphan,
if it wasn't because Shi House took me in, I would have been eaten by stray dogs.
This time, I wasn't able to honestly tell Jiu Ye about Luo Yu Fang's business.
No matter how Jiu Ye punishes me,
I don't have any complaints.
It's just that... my heart has bitterness.
Compared to other businesses,
we treat the employees generously,
and have fair transactions with patrons.
We've never dominated the markets and oppressed businesses of the same trade.
But,
how did Shi House come to today's condition?
Could it be that the hard work Elderly Master and Old Master went through with their entire lives
to accumulate this wealth,
will it be squandered because of the loss of glory?
Jiu Ye.
How would you go to see Old Master at that time?
Enough!
From what I see, you're becoming more and more muddled, aren't you?
Who taught you to use this kind of tone to talk to Jiu Ye?
I don't dare!
It's just that my heart is bitter.
My heart has bitterness!
Xin Yue,
you really surprised me.
With this kind of intelligence,
a small Luo Yu Fang has really made things difficult for you.
You don't want to work on a good business,
and want to climb up to people of power and influence.
You're so busy tormenting over this,
what is it actually for?
Madame Yue is still young.
What she's done should be because she wants to expand the trademark.
There shouldn't be any wrong with what's done.
If there's any wrong to be said,
then the wrong is upon me,
wrong that I didn't advise her well,
letting her do whatever.
Jiu Ye,
if you want to punish,
then just punish me only.
Old Wu,
I also watched the play.
There's a deeper meaning to it.
If it's a person who's greedy for credit temporarily,
this story would definitely not be thought of.
In Jian An City, to make Luo Yu Fang's trademark become popular,
it's already enough to find a common story.
Why take the risk to insinuate the Royal family's personal affairs?
Big risks must have big schemes.
Indeed, I did it on purpose.
The motive is to attract the Royal Princess's attention,
then make ties with the Royal Princess.
You have pretty big ambitions.
But have you ever considered
the results of this issue?
Do you have the power to commit to it?
Result?
I don't know what Jiu Ye is scared of.
Right now Shi House is like this,
is it because Shi House's internal department incapable?
No one is able to handle this huge business?
But I know that's not it.
Shi House's decline is related to the decline of the Bi Royal family,
and the rise of the Wan Royal family.
It's the so-called 'power and money are closely related and can't be separated'.
Since the beginning of time, if the business wants to expand,
then it must interact with the officials.
Not to mention, in Jian An City, many court officials meet up here,
a place where many different powers are intertwined.
Even though I've never seen Elderly Master,
but I can imagine his charisma from back then.
So I reckon that the Elderly Master must have interacted well with the Bi family.
So you want to use Hua Yue Nong
to make ties with the Royal Princess.
Miss Xin Yue,
Shi House takes care of thousands of people.
They don't have your intelligence,
even more, they don't have your ambitions.
They also wouldn't neglect their whole family
to play this game with you.
From today onwards,
Luo Yu Fang is sold to you.
From now on, it has no relations to Shi House.
It's your own business as to how Luo Yu Fang is managed.
Jin Yan, return to the mansion.
Yes.
Can go down.
Wu Ye, how is it?
Is there a chance for a turnaround?
What kind of turnaround can there be?
Shi House already officially gave notice that they gave up on Luo Yu Fang.
Madame Yue, you really...
You made your own decision and acted upon this risk,
in the end, it backfired!
Now, we lost the support of Shi House.
In the future, the situation will definitely be more unbearable.
Wu Ye,
you can't blame it entirely on Yue Er.
She's thinking entirely for Luo Yu Fang.
Everyone can see the recent achievements.
When it comes to Jiu Ye...
he doesn't have enough courage and fears of angering the Royal Princess,
fears that danger would loom over us at anytime.
So he threw away Luo Yu Fang and let it survive on its own, clearly trying to protect himself.
This can't be blamed on Jiu Ye.
If there needs to be blame, then blame how you guys have done things to the point where it can't be fixed.
This is also good.
From now on, without Shi House tying us down,
we can be even more free and do what we want.
Yue Er, do you say it's right?
I ask you if it's right?
What is it?
Nothing.
-Who are you?-Move away!
It's so noisy outside.
What happened?
-Not allowed to come in!-Move away, hurry and move away, move away!
Someone come!
Take down all these old designs,
especially Luo Yu Fang's trademark sign.
-Take it down! Tear it!-What?
Tear what?
Who allowed you to tear?
Aunt Hong.
Bring it in.
Open it.
Aunt Hong, today I'm here to be a great kind person.
I know Luo Yu Fang needs to be sold.
I want to buy Luo Yu Fang.
This is the deposit.
Who told you that Luo Yu Fang is being sold?
Please take these taels back with you.
Not selling?
But I heard that Shi House wants to give up Luo Yu Fang.
Without Shi House's support, are you all still able to survive?
You aren't selling, are you waiting for it to close down?
These years, all the dance halls under Shi House has either been run out of business or bought by you
Now, all that's left is Luo Yu Fang
Although, Jiu Ye is no longer involved
But this is still a business of Shi House
Can you let us go based on the founders of the Shi House
Either way, as long as I am here, you cannot have Luo Yu Fang
Send our guests off
No, send these plagues off
Get out, go go go
Let go
Is it up to you to take action?
Come, go and see,
See if anything can be ripped apart
You listen to me
Today is not like before
Shi House no longer has influence
Even if Shi House backs you
You cannot fight me, Aunt Feng
Aunt Feng, please have some respect
Don't criticize Shi House
If you're unhappy I'm disrespecting Shi House
then why don't you blame the weak and useless Master of Shi House
He has no idea how to fight
These generations of business have all been ruined by the hands of one Mo Xun
You cannot take this, the Master created this for Jiu Ye
You can't break it
Don't break it, don't break it
Why can't it be dismantled?!
-Can't dismantle!-Continue dismantling!
Can't dismantle, can't dismantle, can't dismantle!
Who ever breaks it, that person's hand will be useless for one month
Stop!
If someone is disrespecting Jiu Ye and Shi House
then don't blame me for being impolite
I just want to buy Luo Yu Fang
You do not have a chance
Because I am buying Luo Yu Fang
Not just Luo Yu Fang
but all the previous Dance Halls that belonged to Shi House too
I want to buy them back one by one
Leave
Quit standing here embarrassing yourself
Leave
I'll see how long you can hold on
Lets go, bring the money
Everyone, I brought you here to discuss the purchase of Luo Yu Fang
I definitely approve
I approve the purchase of Luo Yu Fang
We can be owners and masters
They had the cash
How can we afford it
Wu Ye, Hua Yue Nong is very popular
We've received a lot of profit since it started
If we continue the play, we'll be able to afford
No way
It's because of Hua Yue Nong
that Jiu Ye gave up Luo Yu Fang
Jiu Ye is right
Hua Yue Nong is a very dangerous play
We might get in a lot of trouble if we continue the play
Wu Ye means to stop Hua Yue Nong?
No way, if we don't continue the play, how can we stand up to Tian Xiang Fang
Even the arrogant Tian Xiang Fang
They still do not dare put on a play like Hua Yue Nong
Madam Yue
These are spare cash from the sisters
It's not much, but please keep it
No matter what, Master must not leave us
We must keep Luo Yu Fang open ourselves
Right, there's also ours.
You guys...
These are your savings that you've slaved over
But you brought Luo Yu Fang the fame today
That's how we were able to earn this money
I would never dream
that I can get on stage and be so well received and respected
This is all given to us by you, Madam Yue
This is our repayment
That is also missing my part
I've been in charge all these years
I put away quite a bit of savings
I can finally make use of it
Since everyone agreens with Xin Yue's decision
Then we can all agree
to make Luo Yu Fang very famous
Good!
Wu Ye.
The success of Hua Yue Nong is because of everyone's hard work
I think Hua Yue Nong can bring us good luck
So as long as I haven't achieved our goal
We will continue performang Hua Yue Nong
Yes, right. We must continue to perform. That's right. Right, right, right, must continue to perform.
It's as expected
Seeing how everyone came together
Qin Xiang is quite moved
Xin Yue is exceptionally keen
We must be even more careful of our movements from now on
Understood
Almost forgot, I have to go buy some things, you go in first
Okay, I'm going
Qin Xiang?
You little fox demon
You can still show your face around here?
You are not afraid of me getting even with you?
If I've insulted Aunt Feng in any way
Then I will apologize
But I do not understand what you're mad at
Don't play dumb with me
You purposely had Qin Yuan Cao report to me
that Shi House is giving up on Luo Yu Fang
that I should go and take over Luo Yu Fang
I thought you were betraying Luo Yu Fang
Then I've helped you
You should thank me
But what's the result?
The result is I almost had my hand injured by your Master
You are quite good
Now that I've offended her
Trouble will be coming to me soon
You are not helping me but harming me, understood?
I am disappointed for your failure as well
But everyone came together in Luo Yu Fang
I didn't think the Master would not do business with you
You didn't thought of this?
Why do I feel like this was all part of your calculations?
That day at the restaurant, you purposely provoked me
and cause me to argue with Aunt Hong
Then you pretended to be in trouble,
so that Aunt Hong came and defended you
This is called when the snipe and the mussles fight, the fisherman wins
As long as I start competing with Luo Yu Fang
You can benefit from all this, right?
What you've said are all guesses
I have nothing to say to you
But you were right about one thing
I did indeed come to Jian An with a purpose
I will achieve it one step at a time
I don't care about what others gain or lose
Stop
This is how you use me as a stepping stone
I will let everyone see your true, poisonous self
If you reach out your hand even a little bit more
The leaf will cut your wrist
I've been around for so long
didn't think you two would come together to mess with me
You know I was following you, right?
I didn't think you'd help me
I don't think you cared at all about Aunt Feng
Otherwise, you wouldn't keep messing with her
You are correct
She does not matter at all
I want to help you out
You pushed Aunt Feng to forcefully try to get Luo Yu Fang
so that everyone can come together
This indeed benefits me
I must thank you
But it also benefits you
As long as Luo Yu Fang is in my hands
I will continue the production of Hua Yue Nong
The minute you appeared
You tried your hardest to stay at Luo Yu Fang
I already knew you had your sights on Hua Yue Nong
You created Hua Yue Nong
To get close to the Royal Princess
By borrowing the Princess' influence to succeed in Jian An
You are correct
At least, in Luo Yu Fang, you are the only one who can see through my plans
Then I will be truthful with you
It is because I have the same idea as you
To have the same idea and the same path, that's fine
But I will not let anything get in the way of my plans
This, I understand also
Here, here, here. Drink, drink, drink.
Emptied!
Speaking of Hua Yue Nong
You guys must see it
These flowery and intimate performances
I have long been sick of it
But think about it, this flowery and intimate lovestory
is about the current Royal Princess and General
One of them, a phoenix amongst us
The other, a servant
The woman is even older than the man
This kind of love story is enthralling and romantic
This has always been a gossip topic
Now we can actually see it played out in front of us
Think about it, the secret story from the Royal Palace
Is put on display in Hua Yue Nong
I think you do not realize
Since the play's been on, Luo Yu Fang has been packed every night
The tickets are very hard to get
Of course! Dont worry
With all of your support, the play will only get bigger
It's going to be the most popular in Jian An City
Come, drink! Come- drink wine, drink wine! Come, come!
Kneel... kneel... kneeling for what? Come, come, come,
drink wine, drink wine, drink wine. What are you kneeling for?
Come, come, come. Drink!
-Pay respects to the Royal Princess.-Drink wine.
Commoner Qin Yuan Chao kowtow to salute Royal Princess.
Just now I heard
Hua Yue Nong is an amazing play
But I didn't hear clearly what made it so amazing
Why don't you tell me again
What is so good about Hua Yue Nong
What kind of Royal Palace secret does it contain?
Report to Royal Princess,
Hua Yue Nong just talks about...
Commoner don't dare to say.
Commoner actually doesn't know either.
Commoner...
Commoner didn't know Royal Princess was here.
Hua... Commoner is just spouting nonsense.
I've offended Royal Princess,
please Royal Princess, forgive me! Royal Princess, forgive me!
Since you know you're wrong, in the future, be more careful with your words
Rumors are started with such discussions
I know of my sin, I know of my sin.
Retreat.
Leave, leave, leave.
Someone can be so daring in the outside world
Dared to be right under my nose
and put on a play like Hua Yue Nong
This is just a way for common people to earn a little money
It does not hurt anybody
Why do you mind so much?
This was a royal event, should not be taken so lightly
Especially
Especially since it's about you and me
We cannot let it become mockery
made to last
Time flies
When I think back to what we've been through
I feel quite pleased
Now Hua Yue Nong has been produced
to be a memorial
It's not a terrible thing
I just remembered
We haven't seen Wu Ji in a long time
Not sure how he's been lately
Wu Ji, it's been a while since you've shown up here
Where did you run off to?
Lately, I've been running around
And did not come to greet Aunt
Hope Aunt can forgive
Teenagers
Since you do not have a career yet
It's normal to enjoy having fun
However, I heard
You've been constantly going to a dance hall called Luo Yu Fang
It makes me a bit worried
Just a regular dance hall
No need for Aunt to worry
That's because they have a play called Hua Yue Nong
It's been taking Jian An city by storm
You must've seen it
I did see it
Whose story is the performance about?
I know
I am worried the story of the play is not accurate
Afraid the writer of the play is purposely mocking the Royal court
No knowing their place
Making a mockery of me in front of the audience
So it's like that
Then Aunt can relax
The story within the play is not outlandish
We can tell the writer put a lot of effort
After watching it
I am quite touched by and admire your story with Uncle
The only catch is
What is it?
I do not think the lead girl can ever capture your glory
Good.
Since the play is not bad
Then I must find a chance to have a look
So it can be clear
Yue Er!
Look, it's full house again tonight
And tomorrow, and the day after, and the next month
Our Luo Yu Fang, since inception, has never been this popular
It's all because of you that we have these good days
It's not only my effort
You've managed so well in and out
Couldn't have been easy
No problem, no problem
As long as we make a lot of money everyday
Everyone is prosperous
I can work as hard as possible
I'm going out.
What she ultimately wants
What exactly is it?
There are many things that don't need to be proven
Like how do I prove that I love you?
If the chance is lost, then I will lose it forever
Is it necessary to confront feelings more honestly?
Thought time would be able to melt your heart
Stubbornly believing that one day you will be sober
Yet how is it that only one goes forward when trying to become closer?
Maybe by letting go, it can be held tighter
I think that I can really
Can give up the stubbornness in loving you
I can understand your decision
I can accept my fate
I think I really love you
Even if it's more painful, I'll sincerely wish you the best
Loving a person requires courage
Heard that there's a kind of courage called giving up
