Episode 28
But unexpectedly 50 miles I tot he journey
He was attacked by dong Zhuo and died. Who?
- Dong Zhuo?-Yes.
The enemy was yelling Dong Zhuo general
Your Highness.
This can't be.
This absolutely can't be.
It must be Yuan Shao.
I was definitely done by that bastard and was framed on Dong Zhuo
Before he convince me to attack Han fu
To conquer Qi Zhou
And when he did
He didn't split any of the land
But he actually
uses schemes
to kill my younger brother.
This huge grudge has to be revenged
Brother.
Older brother,
will determine to personally take Yuan Shao.
Dismembered the body into pieces.
Tell the army
We are going to war!
Yes.
To revenge for the Military Counselor!
To revenge for the Military Counsellor!

Stop!
Greet the mistress
stand up
When did miss have time to come to the training ground
I just came to take a look.
Who hast the best skills among you?
Come out and duel me.
Why? You don't want to?
No, no, of course not.
But miss's martial arts is high
Who would be able to match your skills to duel you?
You guys,
go ahead together, you understand?
- Together,- Yes!
- Duchess, please.
Awesome! Awesome!
Duchess is really awesome.
You still have the face to laugh
What kind of soldiers are you training
So useless
I know my wrong
But duchess martial arts is so good how are they your opponents
Duchess martial arts is so great and just seeing it makes me feel ashamed
Don't think that if you flatter me everything would be alright
Let me tell you! My father and yuan shao are about to go to war
Hurry and train and be prepare to go to war any second
Yes, I will definitely increase the training and fighting
I will look around. Let's go
Get up and train
Is him. It really it's him
How come that horse is here?
Duchess, you...
That's Zhao Zi Long's horse!
Report to duchess. The horse was brought here by two new soldiers
Are there any problems?
Where are they?
They broke the army code and are refecting
-Open the door. -Yes.
Zi Long!
Duchess, why are you here?
I want to ask the same thing. Why are you in Youzhou?
You broke into the army and broke the code
Duchess you came at the right time
It's this official he was the one who lock us up
Forgive me duchess
Zi long I didn't think that we would reunite
Like this
Yeah Zi long and I brought our desire and wanted to try out for the army
We wanted to do something big
But unexpectedly, before we have a chance to fight
We already became criminals
Sorry sorry I didn't manage my subordinate well
I made Zheng ding's hero suffered misfortune
Zi long after we drink this wine
I will apologize to you
Duchess
Me and him were both put in prison and suffer injustice
You are only caring about him and forgetting my existence
You still have the face to say it. I am already clear about what happened
If it was for you acting arrogantly and offended people
Why would Zi long be together with you in prison
You should really reflect on your behavior
Yes
I really should reflect
Why am I so unfortunate
It really is wrong to come to you zhuo
What are you saying?
I said you zhuo have amazing people and is very clean
Duchess personality is straightforward
Like a female hero
I believe Gong Sun is really proud to have a daughter like you
And a talent at that
What you said it's correct
My father is not only proud
He is also loved by the citizens
We also know his limits and
understanding the subordinates in order to put them in best suited positions.
You guys coming here is a brilliant choice
But I don't understand one point
Changshan is under Jizou's jurisdiction. It's the same army call.
Why don't you rely on Yuan Shao and travel far and wide to Youzhou?
Could it be that
Yuan Shao is refusing to accept you guys?
- Of course not.- Then, why is it?
Since duchess ask we won't hide it anymkre
Before we also want to rely on Yuan Shao
But after we got to Jizhou,
they don't manage his men well.
He let his men do what ever they like
People like him who don't understand people's misfortune
Is not worth being his subordinate
Right! Regarding this matter, my father is better than Yuan shao by 1000times
Rest assured, Zi Long.
If you are willing to follow by father. I will definitely let my father use you
Your dreams will definitely be fulfilled here
Thanks duchess
But... but what
It's not like you don't know Zi long's personality
If he want to rely on relation,when he came to you zhuo he would already directly come to you
I understand this point
I personally witness Zi long's ability and personality..
I adored you from my hear
Okay. I will help you with this
Come.
Come don't talk anymore let's drink
-Okay.-Come.
Zi long I am really curious about something
You and Qing Yi, she...
Qing Yi left Zhending and went home after the Tiger Mountain Tooth bandit incident.
Oh, why?
A lot of things happened before that and also there's that
issue of Gao Ze being two-faced.
He's not even human.
- Yan Cheng!-Yes, yes, yes.
I'm not saying.
If I mention him, it dirties up my tongue.
Did something happen?
Gao Ze, he...
Even though we have some suspicion about Gao Ze,
but it's not been proven yet.
We shouldn't judge so much.
Is it related to Qing Yi?
When Zi Long left Changshan, he wanted to see Qing Yi to say goodbye.
But this Qing Yi with Zi Long have misunderstanding.
- Misunderstand?-That's right.
- Formed a rift. - A rift?
- Really is very good.-Eh, Duchess.
Duchess, you...
What I mean is
Such an incident is really not expected.
Thinking about our days at Zhending fighting the Tiger Tooth Mountain's bandits together as our common foe,
developing our deep friendships. Just didn't imagine . . .
You know a person by face but not their heart.
What I mean is, that Gao guy.
Oh right, right, right.
A human's heart changes and feelings change.
I just slaughtered the sheep. Adding a dish for you all.
As my token of apology to Brother Zhao and Brother Liu.
Zhang Kui, you think you can be a brother to Zhao Zi Long?
He's going to be a general in the future, you know.
Yes, you are right.
I'm the one who's blind. I'm the slow one.
May you pardon a lowly person's misgiving.
Captain Zhang, your words are too grave.
No, if I had known sooner you were an esteemed guest to our duchess,
even if I had ten folds the courage,
I still wouldn't dare to treat you like that.
Zhang Kui,
what happened today, I won't fault you the details.
But don't fault me
to remind you that Zhao Zi Long is only temporarily staying at your army camp.
Even he is to suffer in any way,
I will see to it that you get your full.
I don't dare. I don't dare.
Reporting.
Reporting to Captain of Barracks, there are 50 warriors asking to join our army.
Another group trying to freeload.
This is the army camp. Not anyone just come through.
- Tell them to get lost.- Hold.
It's very possible that it could be Shi Mei and Brother Zhou bringing the brave countrymen to reunite with me.
Let's go and welcome them together.
Brother Zhao. Duchess Bao Yue.
It was indeed you guys. Great!
You came sooner than I expected.
Shi Mei, Brother Zhou, long time no see.
Do you still remember our days together fighting the bandits away in Changshan?
Of course. My band of brothers here all contributed bravely to safeguard our home and family.
Now we are all hoping to serve under General Zhao to contribute to the nation.
It's great. So great.
We are currently facing the Yuan Shao battle.
With your force added, it's as though we are a tiger with wings now.
- Zhang Kui. - Duchess.
Settle everyone well. You mustn't slight them.
Obeyed.
Miss. Are your cheeks sore?
What?
From what I see, since you met Master Zhao incidentally,
your smile on your face hasn't dissipated.
That'll get you wrinkles soon and make you old soon.
Is that right?
Just teasing you.
You rotten girl. You dare to tease me?
If I don't remind you,
if your father sees you, he'll think you've gone dumb.
You're the dummy to tease your mistress.
You're not afraid I will punish you by having you clean the toilet?
I'm wrong, alright? I was just happy for you.
Happy for what?
I've served you for so long. Wouldn't I know your thought?
Before, you spoke with your father many times but failed to keep Master Zhao every time.
But now he's came to the door on his own.
Isn't this a happy event?
It is indeed a happy event.
Zhao Zi Long is fluent in both martial skills and scholarship. He is not a readily matched talent.
But Zhao Zi Long's not the only person on earth who is skilled in both martial skills and scholarship.
How come you are so moved by him of all people?
I . . .
A man who can be admired by both you and Miss Qing Yi . . .
It appears this Master Zhao is indeed charming beyond the norm.
Congratulations, Miss.
What's there to congratulate for? Zi Long and Qing Yi have long given each other their hearts.
I won't go and snatch another's love.
I know you are loyal but something's happened between Master Zhao and Miss Qing Yi.
Even without your interjection, their relationship will end eventually regardless.
When I went to Changshan, I already said this.
The two of them face too many obstacles. They are not suited for each other.
But what about you and Master Zhao? Is there no obstacle?
There is, but once my dad deems Zhao Zi Long important,
and once Zi Long earns merit in battle,
the obstacle between us will slowly disappear.
Miss, watch out for wrinkles.
Rotten girl.
Zhao Zi Long, you barely had some success and you look down on people right away.
I've judged you wrong.
If you're here just to tell me Gao Ze is not a loyal person,
I got it and I bid you farewell.
Qing Yi, Qing Yi . . .
I keep reminding myself,
since I've chosen the road of a military man, I can't be embroiled by thoughts of a woman,
but why do I always unconsciously think of you?
We once knew each other so well and cherished each other so much.
But why aren't you willing to believe me?
I had so much to tell you before.
But when the words came up to my mouth, only the words "take care" remained.
Zi Long . . .
After this parting, our chances to meet will be so difficult.
Without you by my side, how will I take care?
I don't want to be your baggage.
I always knew your ambitions were grand and far.
That the day would come that you'd part from me.
Since our parting at Zhending County,
I wanted to personally sew some battle robes for you.
In recent days,
I am always upset.
Why did I say such hurtful words?
I don't know how long I need to wait just to give you my apology.
I fear we'd never meet again.
Never will I have the chance to put this battle robe on you.
Miss. Miss.
Who is it?
Urgent army update.
What is it? Speak.
We just got news that Yuan Shao is already stationed at Pan River.
His Majesty is already leading the army to that direction. The big battle is pending.
Why are you just now telling me such an urgent matter?
I just found out too.
Let's go. Come to the guard battalion with me.
The time for Zhao Zi Long to set his merit is here.
- Miss, change first. -Stop dragging on.
- Bring my armor.- Obeyed.
Zi Long? Zhao Zi Long?
What brings Duchess to the barracks?
Where's Zhao Zi Long?
I took his band of brothers to the back mountain to chop some plants.
How dare you!
I just told you yesterday that Zhao Zi Long is a general who commands an army.
How can you allow him to run such a miscellaneous task?
You've wronged me, Duchess. He asked to do it himself.
- Everything we said yesterday . . . - Stop wasting words.
Take some men with you to find him at once.
My dad and Yuan Shao are about to open war at Pan River.
We can't have a tiger general like a Zhao Zi Long to be absent.
If it causes our army to lose a chance, I will seek fault in you.
Obeyed.
Yuan Shao, you disloyal scum!
You tricked me last time to take away Jizhou.
You killed my brother and framed Dong Zhuo.
You are a beast that twists the truth!
Your brother was ambushed and killed by Dong Zhuo.
But you want to blame it on me.
In addition, Han Fu is incompetent.
He happily receded Jizhou to me. How does that relate to you?
Yuan Shao, formerly, I deemed you loyal.
I pushed for you to become a lord, but your actions today,
speak of you as a scum like a wolf.
With what honor do you not cease to live?
Just a little Gongsun Zan? You don't have the right to reprimand me.
Come, give me.
Next. Here you go.
Here.
Give me.
Follow. Follow.
Big Brother. What the heck have we been doing?
You're a brave general. You do this kind of work?
Shi Mei, I've said this to you many times already.
We are in the army awaiting our chance.
Let's not speak of these ungrateful words anymore.
Come.
- Who will take the first line? - I will.
Zi Long, I think I hear battle drums.
It's from the director of the border.
Big Brother.
Let's go take a look.
Follow.
You can evade a move from me?
Brother Gongsun, indeed you have some skills.
Shove the nonesense.
Protect His Majesty. Penetrate through.
Kill.
Gongsun Zan, give me your life!
Gongsun Zai, you have this day too.
Who is the new comer?
No need to ask so much. Watch my move.
You nameless scum. Come get it.
Scum. Let's see where you run to.
Wen Chuo is my army's best general.
He's never faced this in previous battles.
Not even 50 to 60 men can bring him down.
Find out who that person is.
Replying to Your Majesty, Gongsun Zan's generals are all in the middle war.
The one who's fighting Wen Chuo is dressed in a soldier's garment so he must be just a nameless soldier.
What?
Sound the golden hoot to retract the army.
Scum. Count yourself lucky.
We'll battle another day.
Your Highness, please go to bed and have a good rest.
-You go on, okay?-Yes.
I've heard, the thing Jizhou County people yearn for,
nothing more than the person Yuan Shao.
How can you lose your way and know to return?
Because of the commander-in-chief should understand not to judge first.
Yuan Shao swindled Jizhou to hound Han Fu to death.
Heartless and injustice.
I this time to serve in the army in order to assist benevolent government to rescue people from hanging upside down (to save people from dire straits).
No because for personal gain, that's why I kept my distance from Yuan Shao.
Come to take shelter from My Lord.
Good, good, good.
It's really hard to come by.
I still don't know how to address you.
Mount Chang's Zhao Yun, Zhao Zi Long
in the fight to resist mountain bandits defend Zhending at that time.
Already in one move become famous.
Could it be that Your Highness haven't heard of it?
Don't be rude!
My brother was impulsive.
I hope My Lord will forgive him.
It doesn't matter, doesn't matter.
Dad!
Dad! Quick! Let me have a look.
Where is the injury? Quick, let me have a look.
Small injury, no need to panic.
Look at you.
If you have your daughter here, you certainly will not injured.
That will do.
Don't think your father doesn't know what intentions you have in mind.
What intentions?
You're a girl, you should be good and stay home.
Don't think about killing and fighting all day long.
In future, when it come to battles, you're not allowed to mention it.
Did you hear me?
Like father like daughter.(lit. saying: father's a lion, son cannot be a dog).
You shouldn't restrict me like that.
I'm not a tiger, I'm a dog, okay?
Why is it every time I talk about these things, you'll back chat with me?
Zi Long, so you're here.
Greetings Princess.
Pardon. Pardon.
Could it be, doing battle with Wenchou in 10 rounds?
The young general who saved my daddy was indeed you.
Yes.
You guys know each other?
He is exactly the person, I keep on remind you countless time
to let you put him in an important position.
Did you forget?
A little impression, a little impression.
Now you can trust my judgment.
The Pan He's battle, if it weren't for Zi Long.
Okay, okay, okay.
This time, pushing back the Yuan Army,
Zi Long's, admittedly his contributions cannot be unnoticed.
But Yan Gang's reinforcement troops got there in the right moment.
This time the war situation, the key was with Yun Gang.
You don't understand about the battle situation, don't meddle.
Dad, how could...
This battle's great victory,
in future, when it comes to rewards,
you guys won't be overseen.
You can leave.
Thank you My Lord, I'll take my leave.
We'll take our leave.
Zi Long.
Daddy, I don't understand.
I've said it...
You don't understand the situation. Stop meddling.
Why are you not listening?
But Zi Long should be first rank for merit.
Zhao Zi Long's achievement is infact by luck.
I have Yang Gang and many other fierce generals under me.
Are they inferior than him?
You are stubborn and biased.
You'll come to regret it sooner or later.
You!
Because Changshan Prefecture is Yuan Shao's jurisdiction,
Gongsun Zan is weary and suspicious of Zhao Zi Long.
Brother Zhou,
- what are you doing? - Not much.
Duchess Bao Yue is throwing a banquet for Zi Long.
- You're not going? - I'm not going.
There will be meat and wine.
And women dancing. You're not going?
I refuse to comply.
No comply?
Zi Long's heroic act in battle today.
Everyone witnessed it.
He saved Gongsun Zan's life.
But why is it that only his daughter steps up to greet him?
What about him?
It's true.
I protest.
I won't go to this congratulatory banquet.
You're right. You're absolutely correct.
What are you doing?
Brother Zhou.
I think what you said is right.
A person must have his own dignity and character in life.
In order to be deemed with respect by others.
You're not going.
Then I won't go either.
What's that sound?
Not going doesn't mean I'm not hungry.
Go and get your rewards.
Obeyed.
Shuang'er.
Award Zi Long.
Brother Zi Long.
Are you pleased with this banquet to celebrate your merits?
Bao Yue, for my father's sake, as well the entire camp of soldiers,
toast to you.
I don't deserve it.
Duchess, you are too kind.
Pour.
- Fill to full. - Duchess.
Full.
Duchess, your health is a priority.
Zi Long has no such virtue or such capability.
You needn't be so generous, Duchess.
No, the cup earlier was a toast on behalf of my father.
And this cup is from me, Gongsun Bao Yue.
How can you decline?
Alright.
Brother Zi Long, you are truly a rare breed of a true great hero of our time.
You are so young but you are a master in martial arts.
You managed to put Wen Chuo in a panic of defeat to flee after 50 to 60 exchanges.
What's more rare is that not only are you so skilled above others, you are also so chivalrous.
You saved my dad when he was in trouble.
Today's victory is all due you alone.
Zi Long doesn't dare to accept that.
No.
You stop talking about not daring to this and that.
As I see it, Brother Zi Long is young and capable and you are also a savior to my dad.
I believe my dad will deem you a very important help here.
And you will surely become a heavyweight in our Gongsun camp.
Hero Zhao's future heights is hard to put a limit to.
I seem to hear the words of the duchess as rather fake.
Shi Mei.
No,. let her finish.
I want to hear what about me is so fake.
DIdn't you see how His Majesty's attitude toward Brother Zhao?
Obviously without any intention to promote or reward.
Just some pacifying to get it over with it.
Shi Mei, shut your mouth. Say no more.
Brother Zi Long, don't be angry with Shi Mei.
She's worried for you.
She is young in age.
Her words are brash.
Please forgive her for offending you.
My father was indeed a bit snub.
But I guarantee, with my status as the duchess,
next time, I will see to it that you'll be the commanding general.
So my dad can see your real prowess.
Come, toast to tomorrow's victory.
This banquet
is to congratulate General Wen's merit.
Everyone, enjoy yourself and feast to your content.
Come. Here.
With gratitude.
As I see it, this battle with Gongsun Zan,
we won it big.
Yes, all thanks to
our brave General Wen.
Look at how Gongsun Zan, after his defeat,
that look of a defeated dog in a panic.
Such a funny sight.
Yes. As soon as General Wen comes out,
Gongsun Zan gets beaten to pieces.
Such a delight.
Generals, there's no need to cover for me.
Though it's true I nearly got to kill that bastard Gongsun Zan,
but in my dozens of battling,
I still couldn't take down that young general on white horse.
Actually --
Actually, what startled me
was that the young general uses a spear too.
I, Wen Chuo, can be said to be top one or two.
But that youngster's spearship is unmatched by anyone.
Full of varieties and changes.
I am inferior to him.
As I see it,
your prowess,
there's no need to compare it to some nameless petty soldier.
Come. Fill General Wen's wine.
Let me toast you another.
As I see it, General Wen,
it was because you had to chase after Gongsun Zan first,
and wasted a lot of your physical strength,
so you gave that nameless soldier an opportunity. Right?
Yes. It's true. Yes.
Next time we battle Gongsun Zan again,
and we run into that nameless petty soldier again,
let me take care of him easily.
General Ju, please listen to me.
Since the old times, heroes arise from youth.
From now on, if you meet that opponent,
you must be cautious in ten thousand folds.
Let's stop the talking now. Come.
Cheers.
A heavyweight? Well, the battle gears are heavy indeed.
But this doesn't count as being a heavyweight.
How he repays his life's savior.
If we start battling again and he falls off the horse again,
I'll see who'd want to go and help him.
I've already said those resentments to Big Brother.
But our Big Brother has no reaction whatsoever.
Zi Long, what are we living in now?
You can still hold your temper?
If one can't hold down his temper, how will he achieve greatness?
So you're saying running these odd errands in the back army camp can result to greatness?
That's what battling is.
If there's army in the front, there's got to be the back side too.
There are those who shoot arrows, then there are those who prepare the arrows.
The most important thing is that everyone
completes their responsibility.
Only when the group is unified, can victory be harvested. Right?
Not right. If you want to win,
then you need to put the right people in the proper positions.
That Gongsun Zan, last time you saved him.
Even the opponent's general noticed.
But he just acts like nothing --
I'm not happy with it.
I believe His Majesty who commands the great army
has his own way of applying the people to their positions.
We should stop complaining.
Continue to tie the rope.
Do work.
Anyone who gets in the way of the battle,
deserves death without inquiry.
Move.
Don't block me.
That child.
Father General.
Why are you here?
I'm Father General's right and left hand.
Such an important battle. How can I not be involved?
You're everywhere.
I'm just a little late.
And you've already committed a grave wrong.
What grave wrong?
You positioned the people wrong.
Let's hear it.
You put Zhao Zi Long who can win battles, and who also saved your life,
in the back army. Isn't that a waste of a great talent?
Not only are you short-selling yourself, you're assisting your opponent.
Such nonsense.
Father. What do I have to say for you to get it?
Even if you hadn't heard about Zhao Zi Long's heroic acts in his hometown,
driving out the enemies.
You should have still witnesses personally his performance in battle.
